Fly [Acoustic Version]

LYRICS:
Coming to the end of myself
Where the rubber meets the road to nowhere
Emphatically pursuing nothing
I always do what I don’t wanna do
Is there a way to stop this calamity within?

Hope has come and gone
No right can fix my wrong

I need saving, changing
From the secret things I’ve tried to hide and reconcile
Just Your name can rearrange me
Take my broken wings and teach me how to fly

Trusting in myself has let me down
Just a fragment of what I once was and who I’m meant to be
Innocence a memory and pain a stark reality
Could it be there’s more in store
Than everything I’ve been living for?

Attempts for love apart from You
Led me astray but all along You knew

I need saving, changing
From the secret things I’ve tried to hide and reconcile
Just Your name can rearrange me
Take my broken wings and teach me how to fly

“Follow your heart” was the lie I was sold
Absent restraint left me out of control
You were the missing piece I never knew I needed
How can it be You’d rescue me
You’d love this filthy wretch and grant eternity
Now I conclude to change my view

I need saving, changing
From the secret things I’ve tried to hide and reconcile
Just Your name can rearrange me
Take my broken wings and teach me how to fly
Take my worldly dreams and help me come alive
Take my broken wings and teach me how to fly
With Christ I’ll finally fly
