Never knew I'd cry over a plane taking off

[PeterHollens]

This makes me cry everytime I listen. This video only added to that experience. Thanks for making music to inspire and lift us up and help us feel emotion. It is so needed in this numb digital world. Hollenfam are huge fans of yours Cody. 🙏❤️

more people seriously need to find this song. the whole thing from the lyrics to the vocals are incredible

"Did faith let me down? Or did I not have enough? That distinction is tough..."

I was just laid off from the airline I've been working for a year now as a flight attendant...I lost my wings because of the pandemic... That may be shallow compared to what other people lost in this crisis but this song hits all the right parts, right now. I thought I was okay, now I can't stop crying. Thank for letting me breathe out all of the pain I've been hiding, Cody. Now, I don't need to lie to myself anymore that "I'm okay"... We all have our own pains to deal with. I guess I'll just finish my tears then imma fight and stand up and smile again tomorrow. This is such a great song. Thank you.

[BoboBenny]

Beautiful. The moment the plane took off with the change in music, I got goosebumps!

[cheslavo]

"You said if I believed enough.. I would fly.. why didn't I?" that hits hard 😔

[Gracevii]

“ Seems like this fall will be the death of me..

Suddenly a peace that i cannot explain, and all that i can do is close my eyes, as you lift me up. YOU LIFT ME UP “

[SheWritesSeaofStars]

I love the progression of this song. So many songs stay stale and in the same place, but this one is like a story within itself. It begins so hopeless, then questioning, and then triumphant. I absolutely love it. What a magnificent song! I’m not sure if it is about God, but as a Christian, that’s how I interpret it. Absolutely beautiful. I know I’ll be listening to it on repeat for a while.

[Hmmhattricker]

Dude, you are insanely good at structuring songs. Every piece you make are little stories that a lot of people can relate to. I love the Disney-feel I get almost every time. Your music really moves me.

[lexstacks]

A close family friend sang this song and played piano at my moms funeral yesterday. Always love you mom! Till we meet again.

[alexivital]

This isn't even a gospel song but it's made my faith so much stronger over the years of listening to this. Thank you 🙏🏽

[benhallett]

I want this song synchronized with every takeoff I have from now on...

[saptarisiwi]

"Flying"

Where did my wings go?
I could've sworn I could fly
Straight up into the sky
Boy, I should have known
It was all just a lie
No one on earth can fly

Thought the things you said would turn out true
Guess that's what I get for trusting you
You said if I believed enough, that I would fly
Why didn't I?

Did faith let me down
Or did I not have enough?
That distinction is tough
Still, I thought your hands
Protected me from the fall
Did you mean that at all?

Thought the things you said would turn out true
Was it even you I listened to?
I thought if I believed enough, that I would fly

Air is rushing past, and I can barely see
Seems like this fall will be the death of me
In a second now, the ground will come to take me home

Suddenly, a peace that I cannot explain
Feels like the wind is running through my veins
Oh, and all that I can do is close my eyes as you lift me up
You lift me up

All that I know now is sky and cloud
Don't know when my feet last touched the ground
You said if I believed enough, I would fly

[claireandbright]

This song almost made me cry. I don't know if this song was referencing struggling with God, but that's the way I interpreted it and it was so peaceful and beautiful and real. I absolutely love this song. Keep making incredible, meaningful music like this.

[JengaTooThick]

Absolutely breathtaking. This will sound weird, but thank you for devoting your life to making beautiful music so that I can have the privilege of experiencing it. This song is awe inspiring in the truest sense.

[natalie_kendel]

I love it when artists use genuine orchestral instruments. MORE should do that! So tired of the other stuff.

[kristinmarshall]

When you can hear someone's soul in their music then that's when you get the feeling you're in a trance and feel like he's singing to you❣

[saradobovsek]

my biggest wish has always been to fly and this song almost feels like i did it

[Gracevii]

I listen to many artists in many languages.. but never called a song “ my favourite “ as i called “ Find my way back “ .. i’ve been a huge fan of you since it was released, i keep listening to every version of your songs and never get bored, you are amazing just keep the good work up and remember some people out there are waiting for u.. Your voice is so warm, the feelings u put into your songs always bless my nights every time i feel emotional or lonely. There is something so special about u and u became connected to many memories i have, u also add beautiful cosy vibes to my winters. Moms tell their kids my favourite artist was “ Elvis Presley “ or anyone like him, i guess i’ll be telling my kids one day that u were mine, simply cos u r that amazing.

P.s, this song gave me chills and starting to be my new favourite :)
