Michael Card Gomer S Song Lyrics

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

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

The fondness of a father
The passion of a child
The gentleness 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

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

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

Simply more than I can see
How he keeps on forgiving me
The wife of adultery
Gomer is my name
