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
