Trouble in the Flesh

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
Now, don't be amazed, no child
I know you're vulnerable

Woman, I know how you feel, yea

All of the fussin and the fightin
And the cussin and the
Underhanded indirects and lonely beds
Please believe
Been there I did that
Don't plan on goin back to
Holdin back that good good
I'm aimin to please
When the rain falls
And the flood comes
And the wind blows
And it beat beat beats on your house
Pray that it's built on solid ground

But I spare you now
Trouble in the flesh

Watch yo mouth, girl
Mm mm mm
And don't you dare walk out of that man's house
Oh no no no no no
That man needs you
You need him
That man loves you
And you love him

Don't let the devil use you to
Aggravate him
Reverence that man, oh

All of the fussin and the fightin
And the cussin and the
Underhanded indirects and lonely beds
Please believe
Been there I did that
Don't plan on goin back to
Holdin back that good good
I'm aimin to please
When the rain falls
And the flood comes
And the wind blows

And it beat beat beats on your house
Pray that it's built on solid ground
But I spare you now
Trouble in the flesh

I know you can't see it,
It's beautiful, baby
When the cloud clears
It's no longer shady
No more fears
It's powerful, baby
The love between you and your lord is heavy
I know you can't see it,
It's beautiful, baby
When the cloud clears
It's no longer shady

No more fears
It's powerful, baby
The love between you and your lord is heavy
You can't see it
It's beautiful

Be at peace my lord
For I am a piece of you
In the one flesh we are bound
Predestined in the book of life to be found
Live joyfully together
Ecclesiastes nine verse nine
Purified aged wine
Picked from Israel's vine
You as a provider, the interpreter and guide
I'll forever be your ride or die
Endure through this trouble in the flesh test
Helpmate, pillar of rest
I promise to do my very best
To see you as king in everything
My lord, we gonna endure
This trouble trouble trouble
