It Ain't Me, Babe



Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her, that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that He might present the church to Himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish.  

In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, because we are members of his body. 

“Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh (echad).”  

This is a profound mystery, but it refers to Christ and the church.  

-Ephesians 5:25-32



Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I'm not the one you want, babe
I'll only let you down

You say you're lookin' for someone

Who'll promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes to you
Someone to close his heart
Someone to die for you and more.

But it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

But it ain't me, babe
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe
It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

-"It Ain't Me Babe" written by Bob Dylan
