Covenant Woman Lyrics by Bob Dylan

Covenant Woman Lyrics

    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.

    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.
