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
