His trembling hands
Held the church pew that day
Struggling to stand
When they asked him to pray
With wisdom and strength
His words were spoken
But his body grew weary
For his wings were broken

But he will fly once again
He will soar with his wings unfolded
Hear the angels applaud
As he rides on the wind to the arms of God
And he will fly, he will fly again

And on that day
When he left for the sky
I saw him smile
As he told me goodbye
No more would he weep
For missed tomorrows
No more would he suffer
In this land of sorrows

But he will fly once again
He will soar with his wings unfolded
Hear the angels applaud
As he rides on the wind to the arms of God
And he will fly, he will fly
I know that he's in a better place
I still dream of the day
When I'll see his face
Then we'll embrace

And we will fly once again
We will soar with our wings unfolded
Hear the angels applaud
(The angels)
As we ride on the wind to the arms of God
And we will fly, we will fly again
