Song of Gomer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't know what He sees in me He is Spirit, He is free And I the wife of adultery Gomer is my name Simply more than I can see How He keeps on forgiving me How He keeps His sanity Hosea, you're a fool [Refrain] A fool to love someone like me A fool to suffer silently Though sometimes through Your eyes I see I'd rather be a fool [Verse 2] The fondness of a Father The passion of a Child The tenderness of a loving friend An understanding smile All of this and so much more You've lavished on a faithless whore I've never known love like this before Hosea, you're a fool [Refrain] A fool to love someone like me A fool to suffer silently Though sometimes through Your eyes I see I'd rather be a fool [Bridge] This God of Yours would not have told To lift a love that You couldn't hold And though time and time again I flee I'm always glad to see You coming after me [Outro] Simply more than I can see How He keeps on forgiving me The wife of adultery Gomer is my name
