Generate meaning
1
I have come with one purpose
2
To capture for myself a bride
3
By my life she is lovely
4
And by my death she's justified
5
I have always been her husband
6
Though many lovers she has known
7
So with water I will wash her
8
Oh and by my word alone
9
So when you hear
10
The sound of the water
11
You will know
12
That you're not alone
13
Cause I havn't come for only you
14
But for My people to pursue
15
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
16
If you love Me, you will love the church
17
Oh and I have long pursued her
18
As a harlot and a whore
19
Yes, but she will feast upon me
20
She will drink and thirst no more
21
So when you taste
22
My flesh and my blood
23
You will know
24
That you're not alone
25
Cause I havn't come for only you
26
But for My people to pursue
27
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
28
If you love Me, you will love the church
29
There is none who can replace her
30
There are many who will try
31
And though some may be her bridesmaids
32
They can never be My bride
33
(Oh no)
34
Cause I havn't come for only you
35
But for My people to pursue
36
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
37
If you love Me, you will love the church
