Wedding Dress

If you could love me as a wife

and for my wedding gift, your life

Should that be all I'd ever need

or is there more I'm looking for

and should I read between the lines

and look for blessings in disguise

To make me handsome, rich, and wise

Is that really what you want

I am a whore I do confess

But I put you on just like a wedding dress

and I run down the aisle

and I run down the aisle

I?m a prodigal with no way home

but I put you on just like a ring of gold

and I run down the aisle to you

So could you love this bastard child

Though I don't trust you to provide

With one hand in a pot of gold

and with the other in your side

I am so easily satisfied

by the call of lovers so less wild

That I would take a little cash

Over your very flesh and blood

Because money cannot buy

a husband's jealous eye

When you have knowingly deceived his wife

- Derek Webb

This song was one of the first that gave Christian music the chance to be the true artistic expression of a Christian. It still hits me.
