Give Them Wings to Fly

Lyrics

I do believe that Heaven Sends angels from above Sheltering the children God has given me to love For nothing is as sacred As the caring of their souls How I long to keep them safe Wherever they may go If I could, I'd hide them In the warmth of my embrace And let their world be filled With only innocence and grace But if I gave them all the riches Underneath the moon Still, my only place of hope Is giving them to You There will be broken dreams That I cannot repair Silent tears my hands will never dry Far beyond the reaches of my love I know You will be there Father, hear their every cry And give them wings to fly Looking back, I see the hand Of God is always near Angels weave their presence Through a tapestry of years The echoes of my mother's prayers Have now become my plea Covering my children With the grace that covers me There will be broken dreams That I cannot repair Silent tears my hands will never dry Far beyond the reaches of my love I know You will be there Father, hear their every cry And give them wings to fly I have seen the way the world Can toss and turn a tender heart So I'm trusting You To meet them where they are Oh, far beyond the reaches of my love I know You will be there Father, hear their every cry And give them wings to fly Ooh, give them wings to fly
