I am your dove
ringed and tagged by the Word of your love
I know no other destinations
for you have brought me home to roost.
On the sprawling branches of the tree of Life
I am made to perch and rest
under the shade
under the healing leaves
on this fruit laden tree
of the doctrine of Christ in season.
I am nourished
my feathers perfumed,
oiled with spikenard
the sweetest of herbs
glowing from within and without.
I was in the wilderness of sin
of unbelief & unrighteousness
on man’s hunting ground and battlefield
of woes and sorrows
but you have wrenched me from
the enemy’s grip
tended to my wounds
taught me to know
my God and the secret part of thee.
Thou art my quickening
the stimulating wine of youth
I am come home to your dovecote
to nest in your amazing love and grace
