Wings Of A Dove

If I had wings of a dove

Far, far away

Would I fly and hide away

To be at rest



If I could wing above,

So far on high

And be free to steal away

And be at rest



Dona nobis Domine perpetua in saecula

Dona nobis Domine perpetua in saecula pacem



If I could wing above,

So far on high

And be free to steal away

And be at rest



Dona nobis Domine pacem

Dona nobis Domine pacem

Dona pacem



For everything above

Across the sky

Can be free to soar on high

And be at rest



Dona nobis Domine perpetua in saecula

Dona nobis Domine perpetua in saecula pacem



Exaudi orationem dona Domine

Exaudi orationem dona nobis pacem



If I could wing above

So far on high

And be free to steal away

And be at rest



Dona nobis Domine pacem

Dona nobis Domine pacem

Dona pacem



If I had wings of a dove

Far, far away

Would I fly and hide away

To be at rest



Be at rest

Be at rest
