When troubles surround us, when evils come
The body grows weak and the spirit grows numb
When these things beset us, He won't forget us
He sends down His love on the wings of a dove
Chorus
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 Noah had drifted on the flood many days
He searched for land in various ways
Troubles, he had some, but he was not forgotten
He sent down His love on the wings of a dove
Chorus
Guitar break
When Jesus went down to the water that day
He was baptized in the usual way
And when it was done, God blessed his son
He sent down his love on the wings of dove
Chorus
Was a sign from above
On the wings of a dove.
