The Dove Does Fly Away--

And I feel, feel so empty Feel so empty inside I oh! I, I can't fly I can't FLY I'm not shy... And the dove does fly... And the dove does fly away to the heavens through the clear blue skies; And the dove does fly away Back to the person who gave me being I trust in Him Holy Spirit fall on me Allow me to fly, through the parted white clouds Give me the power, give me the power allow to fly Like the dove does fly away Let your love flow down on me Allow me to be free Liftoff the burdens that I bear Release them, so that I can fly And I feel, feel so empty Feel so empty inside I oh! I, I can't fly I can't FLY I'm not shy... And the dove does fly... And the dove does fly away to the heavens through the clear blue skies; And the dove does fly away You have revived me freed me from my guilt Now all that I have left Is freedom in you I'm blessed, I am blessed Back to the person who gave me being I trust in Him Holy Spirit fall on me Allow me to fly, through the parted white clouds Give me the power, give me the power allow to fly Like the dove does fly away Let your love flow down on me Allow me to be free Liftoff the burdens that I bear Release them, so that I can fly Like the dove does fly away Like the dove does fly away As the dove does fly away 1/2/04 written by James Edward Lee Sr.2019
