Covenant Woman Lyrics - Saved - Bob Dylan

Covenant woman got a contract with the Lord 

Way up yonder, great will be her reward. 

Covenant woman, shining like a morning star, 

I know I can trust you to stay where you are. 

And I just got to tell you 

I do intend 

To stay closer than any friend. 

I just got to thank you 

Once again 

For making your prayers known 

Unto heaven for me 

And to you, always, so grateful 

I will forever be.

I've been broken, shattered like an empty cup. 

I'm just waiting on the Lord to rebuild and fill me up 

And I know He will do it 'cause He's faithful and He's true, 

He must have loved me so much to send me someone as fine as you. 

And I just got to tell you 

I do intend 

To stay closer than any friend. 

I just got to thank you 

Once again 

For making your prayers known 

Unto heaven for me 

And to you, always, so grateful 

I will forever be. 

Covenant woman, intimate little girl 

Who knows those most secret things of me that are hidden from the world. 

You know we are strangers in a land we're passing through. 

I'll always be right by your side, I've got a covenant too.
