Mortification - Mephibosheth lyrics

[Verse 1] David made a covenant with Jonathan A promise of trust, the spilling of blood Slaughter the heifer, walk between two parts Off with my head if I break the oath. [CHORUS] Mephibosheth Blood covenant [Verse 2] Jonathan died in battle David, ascend to the throne Mephibosheth a cripple Son of Jonathan lost Left behind as they fled Oath of d**h upon David's head [CHORUS] [BRIDGE] The search went out for Mephibosheth Caught, imprisoned, cursing rebel Brought before King David's throne Thought that d**h was imminent David remembers the covenant oath He'll show kindness to Jonathan's house Seen as now the son of the king All that was Saul's would now be his [Verse 3] You are Mephibosheth David, symbolic of God Your resisting His throne The blessing of the blood covenant Christ died for you, you don't even know [CHORUS]
