WINGS LIKE A DOVE
lyrics by Brian Yorkey
music by Woody Pak
performed by Sharon Leal
Oh, that I had wings like a dove
For then I would fly away
And then I would be at rest
Oh, that I had wings like a dove
For then I would wander far
And wait in the wilderness
For then I would wander far
And wait in the wilderness
I turn my eyes now fore'er toward the sky
To dwell one day in our home way on high
To bathe my soul in the sweet bye and bye
To live, at last, at home
So high the mountain, so wide, Lord, the sea
So far we've traveled, so far to be free
Through toil and trial and terror to be
At peace, at last, at home
Chorus
By the rivers of Babylon
We hung our harps on a poplar tree
For how can we sing our father's song
In a land where we're not free?
By the rivers of Babylon
The ghosts of our fathers will walk alone
Until we sing their souls to rest
And make this land our own
Chorus
The mountain high, Lord, the ocean so wide
We sailed that sea and moved mountains aside
And still our children must turn back the tide
To live their lives at home
Chorus
