Let Me Fly

lift me midst the clouds ascending
there where wingéd creatures touch the sky
over mountain peaks to find my destiny
baby way up high, baby let me fly

oceans may your silvery waters
speak unto me when my soul is dry
surge and whisper words to solve the mystery
baby way up high, baby let me fly

sweet heaven you call me, I hear all you say
your words tell my eyes look and see
they minister wisdom, they show me the way
to heaven inside of me

fields unfurl below me where soil has been turned
in straight lines of fresh furrows tilled
they point to horizons, to things to be learned
where longings will be fulfilled

sweet earth when I hear your voices
then my spirits answer in reply,
soar the rising air wherein my soul is free
baby way up high, baby let me fly
