i wish i could fly
leave this crazy world behind
i'd fly far from the things
that make me stumble all of the time

these wings to my soul are clipped every time they grow
with just one touch from You, God
and i could soar on the wind i know

(chorus)
and i could spread these things and fly
the world can't hold me down
these wings are freedom for my soul
no longer am i bound
and i could spread these wings
and show the world the freedom i've found
and if i can fly, than you can fly too.

the gravity of the world just keeps pulling me down
until i can gravitate to Christ
i won't be leaving the ground
with the Father, my navigator
and the spirit, my wind
and with Jesus, my wings
i can spread him out and i begin to ascend
