Intro

When I was young, the smallest trick 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, behind 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 on my back.

So hard to breathe, to take the next step.

The mountain is high, I wait 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 buring bright within our hearts

forever

Freedom means love without condition, without a beginning or an end

Here's my heart, let it be forev - er Your's

only You can make every new day seem so new
