Derek Webb - The Church Lyrics

Font:

Align:

i have come with one purpose

to capture for myself a bride

by my life she is lovely

by my death shes justified

i have always been her husband

though many lovers she has known

so with water i will wash her

and by my word alone

so when you hear the sound of the water

you will know youre not alone

(chorus)

cause i havent come for only you

but for my people to pursue

you cannot care for me with no regard for her

if you love me you will love the church

i have long pursued her

as a harlot and a whore

but she will feast upon me

she will drink and thirst no more

so when you taste my flesh and my blood

you will know youre not alone

(chorus)

there is none that can replace her

though there are many who will try

and though some may be her bridesmaids

they can never be my bride

(chorus)
