Song of Gomer
[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
