As this dove,
leaves the ground,
racing towards Heavens sky.
whispering softly, I pray
my soul for you to take
allow my wings the strength
carrying me home, forever.
The purity shown, God's own son;
Calling my name ever so gently
I heed his beckoning call
I am here Lord, I respond.
Your guiding dove, has brought me
and I am forever yours, eternally in debt
for you have saved me from the sin
the evils that are man, my shamefullness
Now forgiven forever, I worship you
Thank you God...
