Hosea

The old book speaks of love so raw
Hosea’s tale breaking every law
A prophet told to take the untrue bride
To mirror grace where shame would hide
Gomer’s path was wild and stray 
Hosea stayed when she'd betray
A lesson cold but truth runs deep
Forgive the wandering the vows you keep 
Grace ain't easy it's heavy to hold
Like buying back what's already been sold
It ain't just a story ink on a page
It's redemption lit bright in every age
The world may call it foolish games
To love a soul that won't remain 
But through these trials mercy shines 
A covenant love that stands the time 
Love unbroken through the storm
Promises given hearts reform 
Even when the fall seems steep
Faith and love the soul they keep 
He told me love her though she's gone  astray 
Keep it real in the pain don't walk away
Her heart don't listen but I'm here to stay
A prophet's call ain't no child's play
Bought her back from a world so cold
Silver and barley redemptions gold
A covenant unbroken though she folds
Grace speaks louder than what time molds
A mirror to our hearts this tale defines
Chasing false idols leaving love behind 
But mercys stronger the ties they bind
Light breaks the chains in the sharpest grind
Tell me can you here the echoes of the past
A love so fierce it's made to last
Through every stumble in the shadow cast
Hosea’s story stands steadfast 
Hosea's shout gotta teach the truth 
Love relentless uncovers the proof
Through the storms here comes the voice
In the chaos love's still the choice
