You call me the maiden of Your eye
But I still can't help but wonder why
Why would You love me with an everlasting love
When I've got nothing lovely to offer up
When I was running far away
Your loving kindness sang to me
You said, "My darling
Don't you sell yourself so short
Take my word for it, my all
You're worth so much more"
Come back home my dear one
I'm so committed to this
Be made whole, beloved
I gave you my heart
And I'd do it again
"My dearest Gomer
Salvation is my Name
"Forget not your first love"
For I am committed to you
All you can enjoy is found in the throws of my love
I am ever for thee and you will ever know the true meaning of your name
Today and from every day that follows I renew my love vow to you
For I am faithful
Come a little closer and maybe you too can visualize
Closer still, face to face
This eye contact
Don't hide your gaze from me my love
All that has gone before I so gently let go
All I have to hold is you right here and right now
Tomorrow's yesterday shall be most sacred
And every breath a present
Look closely
For you are the maiden of my eye
There is no other
Most affectionately yours
Hosea..."
My whole heart is yours for the taking
I won't hold anything against you
Come back home my dear one
I'm so committed to this
Be made whole, beloved
I gave you my heart
And I'd do it again
Prone to wander Lord I feel it
Prone to leave the G-D I love
But here's my heart Lord
You can take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
Here's my heart Lord
You can take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
