Song of Gomer

Hosea 1-3 [F#2 / / / / / / / / ] F#2 G#m7 Don't know what He sees in me, he is spirit, he is free F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C#sus And I, the wife of adultery, Gomer is my name F#2 G#m7 Simply more than I can see how he keeps on forgiving me F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C# F#2 How he keeps his sanity, Hosea, you're a fool Chorus: F#maj7/A# G#m7sus A fool to love someone like me, a fool to suffer silently F#maj7/A# B2 G#m7 C# F#2 But sometimes through your eyes I see I'd rather be a fool The fondness of a father, the passion of a child The tenderness 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 CHORUS D#m /C# B2 /A# This God of yours would not have told G#m7 C# To lift a love that you couldn't hold D#m /C# B2 /A# And though time and time again I flee G#m7 C#sus C# I'm always glad to see you coming after me [F#2 [G#m7/ / / / / / / / / / ] / / / / ] [B2/ / / [G#m7 [C# / / / / ] / / / / ]/ / / / ] Simply more than I can see, how he keeps on forgiving me The wife of adultery, and Gomer is my name Words and music by Michael Card 1992 Birdwing Music and BMG Songs Inc.
