WINGS  LIKE  A  DOVE

 

based on Psalm 55:1-8

 

 

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

Then I would fly away and be at rest;

Behold, then I would wander far off.

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

 

I would wander far off from terrors of death

I would wander far off from strife

I would wander far off from violence

From darkness of days — to LIFE!

From darkness of days — to LIFE!

 

So, don't look for me

Don't look for me

Where you are

Where you are

 

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

I would lodge in the wilderness;

Behold, then none shall steal my peace.

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

 

I would lodge where there is no fearfulness;

I would lodge where there is no moans;

I would lodge where there is no trembling

From a wrath that’s heavier than stones…

From a wrath that’s heavier than stones

 

So, don't look for me

Don't look for me

Where you are

Where you are

 

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

I would hurry to a safe shelter

From the stormy wind and violent storm.

Oh, that I had wings like a dove!

 

I would hurry to a shelter of quiet peace;

I would hurry to a shelter of calm;

I would hurry to a shelter of Loving Arms,

Full of healing and harmonious balm

Full of healing and harmonious balm

 

So, don't look for me

Don't look for me

Where you are

Where you are

PSALM    55  (KJV)

1  Give ear to my prayer, O GOD; and hide not Thyself from my supplication.

Attend unto me, and hear me: I mourn in my complaint, and make a noise;

Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.

My heart is sore pained within me: and the terrors of death are fallen upon me.

Fearfulness and trembling are come upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed me.

And I said, Oh that I had wings like a dove! for then would I fly away, and be at rest.

Lo, then would I wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. Selah.

I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest. 

Oh that I had wings like a dove!...

 

JOHN   7  (WEB)

34 You will seek me and will not find me. You can not come where I am.
