Let's Fly

I look longingly above At the big blue sky. Do you think it’s possible For me to fly? I flap my wings To no avail; Everything I try Seems to fail. Why can’t I move, Somehow break free? Something’s holding me down, Stronger than gravity. I look around me, And there I see Another soul longing To be free. I take his hand, Try to take flight. But we don’t move, Something’s not right. Our first thought is To turn away, But Someone beckons, We begin to pray. Something happens Right then and there; Suddenly we feel As light as air. He changes our hearts, Makes us new. One look at Him And off we flew. No tether holds us down; No limits, none. We fly together For, in Him, we are one. So come fly with me To heights unknown. I’m lost without you, I can’t soar alone.
