Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
Covenant woman got a contract with the Lord
Way up yonder, great will be her reward
ย
Covenant woman, shining like a morning star
I know I can trust you to stay where you are
ย
Yes, and I just got to tell you
That 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
ย
I've been broken, shattered like an empty cup
I'm just waiting on the Lord to rebuild and fill me up
ย
And I know that He will do it 'cause He's faithful and He's true
He must have loved me, oh, so much to send me someone as fine as you
ย
Yes, and I just got to tell you
I do intend
To stay closer, 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
ย
Covenant woman, intimate little girl
Who knows those most secret things of me that are hidden from the world
ย
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
ย
Yes, and I just got to tell you
That 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
