Wings of a Dove
Connie Smith · Born to Sing (Bear Family (Germany)) [2001]
On the wings of a snow white dove
He sends his pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove.
When troubles surround us when evils come
The body grows weak the spirit grows numb
When these things beset us he doesn't forget us
He sends down his love on the wings of a dove.
On the wings of a snow white dove
He sends his pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove.
When Jesus went down to the river that day
He was baptized in the usual way
When it was done God blessed his son
He sent him his love on the wings of a dove.
On the wings of a snow white dove
He sends his pure sweet love
A sign from above
On the wings of a dove.
