THE DOVE

THE DOVE read by the author

You are always with me at the bad points in my life

You are He who called from far "I'm with you in your strife"

Jesus oh Jesus alight in me the Dove

Spirit oh Spirit fill me with His love


I see your blood poured in the dust to expiate my sin

And I hear your cry "ELOI LAMA" turn Passion into win

Jesus oh Jesus your love has set me free

Spirit oh Spirit I humbly bend the knee


The inner door into my heart was locked and barred inside

When heart loves call dissolved the chains, dissolved the will to hide

Jesus oh Jesus rest in me my love

Spirit oh Spirit tell me of the Dove


You tell me Lord to love them all, in the same way you love me

And I want to Lord, obey your call----through my hands and mouth please be

Jesus oh Jesus your love has set me free

Spirit oh Spirit please let the whole World see


You've taught us now to be as one; to cling within the vine

For food and drink and purpose too, our family here shall dine

Jesus oh Jesus alight in us the Dove

Spirit oh Spirit help us live inside our Love


Jesus oh Jesus alight in us the Dove

Spirit oh Spirit----help----Live inside our love
