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 the way you are
Yes, and I just got to tell you, I do intend
To stay closer than any friend
Yes, and 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 is true
He must have loved me so much to send me someone as fine as you
Yes, and I just got to tell you, I do intend
To stay closer than any friend
Yes, and 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 that 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
Yes, and 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
Writer(s): Bob Dylan
