verse 1 Oh that I had wings like a dove Oh that I had wings like a dove I would fly away and be and rest Oh that I had wings like a dove Oh that I had wings like a dove I would fly away and be and rest I would fly away and be at rest Chorus I would wander far away I would wander far away I would lodge I would lodge In the wilderness verse 2 Oh that I could see from above (oh that I could see from above) Oh that I could see from above (oh that I had wings like a dove) I would plant my hope in a new found earth And let it rain till the rivers burst Bridge I would run for shelter From the wind and the tempest I would run for shelter From the wind and the tempest I would run for shelter from the wind and the tempest Run for shelter from the wind and the tempest I would run for shelter from the wind and the tempest Run for shelter from the wind and the tempest Chorus I would wander far away I would wander far away I would wander far away I would wander I would lodge I would lodge In the wilderness
