The Church Lyrics
I have come with one purpose
To capture for myself a bride
By my life she is lovely
And by my death she's justified
I have always been her husband
Though many lovers she has known
So with water I will wash her
Oh and by my word alone
So when you hear
The sound of the water
You will know
That you're not alone
Cause I havn't come for only you
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
Oh and I have long pursued her
As a harlot and a whore
Yes, but she will feast upon me
She will drink and thirst no more
So when you taste
My flesh and my blood
You will know
That you're not alone
Cause I havn't come for only you
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
There is none who can replace her
There are many who will try
And though some may be her bridesmaids
They can never be My bride
(Oh no)
Cause I havn't come for only you
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
To capture for myself a bride
By my life she is lovely
And by my death she's justified
Though many lovers she has known
So with water I will wash her
Oh and by my word alone
The sound of the water
You will know
That you're not alone
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
As a harlot and a whore
Yes, but she will feast upon me
She will drink and thirst no more
My flesh and my blood
You will know
That you're not alone
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
There are many who will try
And though some may be her bridesmaids
They can never be My bride
(Oh no)
But for My people to pursue
You can not care for Me with no regard for her
If you love Me, you will love the church
