I am a lover
I am a shame
I am appalled by what I fame
I am a lover, but I’ve had my share
Of flirting with the darkest affairs

You can find me here with my head against the wall
Lost in my regrets and every time I fall
You catch me in Your hands
You circle me like a wedding band

I have a lover
Faithful and true
Cares for me in all that I do
I have a lover
My song You have sung
With love on Your lips and grace on Your tongue

A promise from Heaven
A promise from You
A promise to love, I will hold onto

God of new beginnings to You I cry,
“Teach me how to love. Teach me how to die.”
In death there’s forgiveness
And forgiveness calls on new life!
