My Lord, how long to sing this song?
And my Lord, how much more of this pretending to be strong?
When she stands before your throne
Dressed in beauty not her own
All soft and small, you'll hear her call
"you brought me here, now take me home."

No, only the first two lines are about Jesus.

The Lord is the one being addressed in the second person, as I read it.

If you want a feminine Jesus or entity that might be supposed to be Jesus you're better off looking at some of the discussions of Wisdom in the Proverbs.

No, the church is the bride of Christ, Jesus is the bridegroom.

The church isn't even the bride of Christ necessarily; if you read Revelation 21 it suggests that the Holy City is the bride.
