Oh that I had wings of a dove
I would fly away
Be at rest forevermore
Finding peace today

I would fly so far and fast
My wings across the sky
To a place where I can rest
Close these weary eyes

Far from the tempest and the storm
That come from every side
I would fly so far away
Find a place to hide

Instead I call out to thee
You give comfort to my soul
The strength to stand another day
As I give you control
