~ The Dove ~

I was sitting in my chair, feeling all alone
There was sadness in my eyes,
What did I do so wrong.
I looked up to the Heavens,
 into the beautiful sky
Wishing I could visit Jesus,
So I would no longer cry.

My eyes saw a dove coming down to me
I knew it was Dear Jesus' Spirit that I could see,
I fell to my knees
as the dove graced my shoulder
I never felt so loved, I felt it all over
A white dove with eyes of blue.
Was looking at me closely,
As I was looking too.

I said "The Lord's Prayer"
As I watched this miracle
There was once again my hope
Which was lost for a time
I know now, Jesus loved me all the time.

The Dove kissed me on the cheek
And washed away a tear
Then the spirit of My Jesus,
in the form of a Dove
Went back to Heaven,
I could see Him touch the clouds above.

He is giving me time to heal,
All the hurt and sorrow that I sometimes feel
I will always remember,
A Dove came to bless me
Now I worship Jesus,
Because his love set me free.
