Covenant Woman Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Kabri 

Cover art for Covenant Woman lyrics by Bob Dylan

This is about the Virgin Mary. Catholics refer to her as the new ark of the covenant (hence "covenant woman" in the song). Also, the symbol for Mary is a six-pointed star ("shining bright like a morning star"), and Catholics pray to Mary to deliver prayers to God ("thank you for sending your prayers up to heaven for me"). This song reads like a prayer to the Virgin Mary, and it is spectacular.

@Kabri Nah. Totally wrong. Nothing to do wit Cathlick Choich
