When trouble surrounds us when evils come The body grows weak the spirit grows numb When these things beset us He doesn'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 Trouble he had some but wasn't forgotten He sent him His love on the wings of a dove (chorus) When Jesus went down to the water that day He was baptized in the usual way When it was done, God blessed his son He sent him His love on the wings of a dove (chorus)
