To my beloved This trouble in the flesh Dressed in sin to beguile me Sad when you make me mad This love hurts so bad Tears flow as the water of your word Cuts through the trenches of this mountain The trouble in the flesh Peaks and valleys through the years Persevere through my fears My lord correct me I'm tired of all this fightin It's a demon sightin You lead with dignity I follow with grace A daughter of Sarah in her righteous place Romantic bubble baths Relax all this trouble When tensions are high Remember the kingdom is nigh This pain is temporary Our house, legendary Bandages cover battle wounds Reopened every time my mouth betrays me Listen Don't be afraid
