Not About Wings – love these lyrics! :)

Here are some sweet and simple lyrics to a song by Downhere. Need a pick-me-up? Here’s the cure 🙂

Not About Wings

Wake dove, stretch your feathers,
Worry not love, how far you could fall.
Fly now, darling find how;
A broken wing can feel the best to soar on

Flying cranes

It’s not the perch you’ve climbed to reach,
But the broken wing that’s made you meek;
that’s when He lifts you high

Believing is not about seeing,
Faith is not about reaching,
and on this journey I keep learning,
Flying is not about wings

Sparrow trapped by a window,
every resource spent for just one goal

It’s not by work you find your escape,
but in your defeat when you seek his face;
that’s when He lifts you high

Believing is not about seeing,
Faith is not about reaching,
and on this journey I keep learning,
Flying is not about wings
