GOD PLEASE GIVE ME WINGS TO FLY

God, please give me wings to fly, so I may soar

Please, help me on this long flight

Please make my wings light but very strong

For they have to last me my whole life



I think I may be growing new ones

And they're causing a great pain

I haven't yet the strenght to fly

So I jump and flap but all in vain



My wings are not yet fullgrown I'm afraid,

They don't have to be silver or spun of gold

Please make them extra roomy for me

Somehow to hold all my fears



Then seal them with your blessings

And warmly wrap them in your love

So I don't have to hold back from taking off

Even though I hear all the time your call



God, I'm  coming home to you

Please help me on this long flight

If you would only help my wings to grow fast

You would see me at last soaring ever upward in the sky.
