You gave me my wings before I was born
And now they have seen a lot of life
Broken as they are
I ask and I cry -
Restore my wings
With the brightest of light.
I didn't deserve them then
And I don't deserve them now
But I want to fly again
Higher and freer
So, I can gaze upon your face
And bathe in what love is really like.
Carry me away to Heaven tonight
And return me to this precious Earth
So, I can spend the rest of my days
Remembering those wounds that demand
I use my wings to destroy what is wrong and
Protect what it right.
Lift me up from the mundane
Make my wings whiter than snow
So I can stay in this fight and
Dispense a measure of might
That brings their every breath to whisper,
Come, Holy Spirit, come.
