Verse 1
God was there at the beginning
His Spirit brooding like a dove
Spoke the earth into existence
Formed creation that He loved
Man was born of perfect image
Made to be a friend of God
Meant to dwell within
His presence
It’s where we all belong
His Spirit brooding like a dove
Spoke the earth into existence
Formed creation that He loved
Man was born of perfect image
Made to be a friend of God
Meant to dwell within
His presence
It’s where we all belong
Chorus

Verse 2
When sin had spoiled creation
The Creator sent a flood
On the cusp of new beginning
He again released the dove
And after all the searching
It found a place to land
On Christ the perfect
Son who would
Redeem it all again
The Creator sent a flood
On the cusp of new beginning
He again released the dove
And after all the searching
It found a place to land
On Christ the perfect
Son who would
Redeem it all again
Pre-Chorus
Looking for the branches
It landed on the vine
The one for our redemption
Who would bridge eternal life
It landed on the vine
The one for our redemption
Who would bridge eternal life
Chorus

The truth, the living water
All we need is more of You
We want more of You

All we need is more of You
We want more of You
The truth, the living water
All we need is more of You
We want more of You

The helper and the healer
All we need is more of You
We want more of You

It is not by my own earning
To have the Helper at my side
The gift was fully

The Lamb was crucified
So now freely I can ask Him
For His blood has washed me clean
Let the dove of heaven
rest upon
The Christ in me

So now freely I can ask Him
For His blood has washed me clean
Let the dove of heaven

The Dove - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
The song “The Dove” by The Belonging Co. is a beautiful reminder of the love and grace of God. The lyrics remind us that God is the God of the wind and the waves, the mountains and the seas, the sun and the stars, the heavens and the earth, the morning and the night, the darkness and the light, the hope and the peace, the joy and the grace, the cross and the grave, and the life that He gave.
This song is a powerful reminder of the love of God that is described in 1 John 4:8: “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.” God is the God of love and He is the source of all love. He is the God of the dove, a symbol of peace and love.
The lyrics of this song also remind us of the hope and peace that God brings. Isaiah 9:6 says, “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” God is the source of hope and peace and He is the one who brings us joy and grace.
The song “The Dove” is a beautiful reminder of the love and grace of God. Let us take a moment to reflect on the love of God and to be thankful for His grace and mercy. Let us also remember that God is the God of the dove, the God of love, and the source of all hope and peace.
