I almost see the air of superiority, until that last verse. Then it becomes obvious all he's trying to say is, despite it all, I still love you, and protect(or spare, in the God analogy) you.

Even if this was another sarcastic song regarding criticism, this one has a bit of an ironic twist: Criticising crticism. Honestly...you wouldn't feel the same(or angry, even) in Hosea's shoes? And the way we prostitute ourselves to the world, it's a fitting anology, but theres the element of human inperfection that makes the tone almost accusatory.
