EN 1173 White as the Wings of a Dove

Ps.68.13

Versi Version 1

1

Yet shall ye be as a dove’s shining wings,

Covered with silver and gold;

Gracious assurance the Word ever brings,

Promise of beauty untold.

Shine on us, Savior, oh, shed forth Thy love;

Make us as white as the wings of a dove;

Shine on us, Savior, oh, shed forth Thy love;

Make us as white as the wings of a dove.

2

What tho’ our tent-homes are covered with dust,

While thro’ life’s desert we move;

Time cometh when they shall flutter, we trust,

White as the wings of a dove.

3

What tho’ our garments like leprosy cling,

Robes of self-righteousness wove;

Praises to Jesus! for yet we may sing,

Clad as the wings of a dove.

4

What tho’ we lie ’midst the filth of the earth,

Or as a prodigal rove;

We may come up from the Spirit’s new birth,

Clean as the wings of a dove.

5

What tho’ for years we have wandered in sin,

And ’gainst the Good Spirit strove;

Thro’ Heaven’s portals we yet may go in,

Pure as the wings of a dove.
