When I was young, the smallest trickle of light,
Could catch my eye, Then life
Was new and every new day I thought that I could fly
I believed in what I hoped for,
And I hoped in things unseen.
I had wings and dreams could soar,
I just don't feel like flying anymore.
When the stars threw down their spears,
Watered Heaven with their tears,
Before words were spoken,
Before eternity,
Dear Father, I need You,
Your strength my heart to mend.
I want to, fly higher,
Every new day again.
When I was small, the furthest I could reach,
Was not so high. Then I,
Thought the world was so much smaller,
Feeling I could fly
Through distant deeps and skies,
Beyond infinity,
Below the face of Heaven,
He stoops to create me.
Dear Father, I need You,
Your strength my heart to mend.
I want to, fly higher,
Every new day again.
Man versus himself
Man versus machine
Man versus the world
Mankind versus me
The struggles go on
The wisdom I lack
The burdens keep piling
Up on my back
So hard to breathe
To take the next step
The mountain is high
I wade in the depths
Yearning for grace
And hoping for peace
Dear God increase
Healing hands, of God have mercy on our unclean souls, once again.
Jesus Christ, light of the world, burning bright, within our hearts forever.
Freedom, means love without condition,
Without a beginning or an end.
Here's my heart, let it be forever Yours.
Only You can make every new day seem so new.
