On Your Wings

Every day, I look up to the sky

And see the birds flying by as I

Sit so cooped up in this place

 

With dreams that never seem to be

Something that’s tangible to me

Is this all there really is?

 

Then why is this still stirring up my heart?

The desire to believe that You are who You are?

 

Could You take me on Your wings

And soar to unknown heights

Far beyond the stars I’d never thought of reaching

 

Could You breathe in me new life

And open up my eyes

To see my dreams unfold their petals in Your hands
 

I want to be so much more than what

I see of myself, I look above

To see the glory of my King

 

If You created me to be

Alike in Your image, then that means

That same beauty is in me

 

Do I dare to think that You can possibly

Breathe my dreams into full reality?

 

Will You take me on Your wings

And soar to unknown heights

Far beyond the stars I’d never thought of reaching

 

You breathed in me new life

Will You open up my eyes

To see my dreams unfold their petals in Your hands

 

There’ll be more than what I see

There’ll be more, I will believe

That the hands that made the world

Are still creating me

 

Immeasurably more than what I see

Ask or imagine, I believe

That the best is yet to come

That You’re not done with me

 

You will take me on Your wings

And soar to unknown heights

Far beyond the stars I’d never thought of reaching

 

You breathed in me new life

You have opened up my eyes

To see my dreams unfold their petals in Your hands

 

Imagine what could come into being

If I gave Him myself, my everything
