READY TO FLY


I was nursing my own wing
Once damaged by a thorn.
When I came across a hurting angel
Whose wings were slightly torn.


Off of her hair came a radiance
That would make a blind man see.
She brought a special brightness
To a world so dark to me.


When I first gazed into her eyes,
I saw pain buried deep within.
To abuse such a giving, tender person.
Truly is a sin.


I realized there was an angel left
In a selfish world that's filled with hate.
An angel who was knocked off course.
Satan's plan turned to holy fate.


I'm strong again because of hope.
I now clearly stand upright.
I'm not afraid to fly again,
I'm ready to take flight.


I hope that I can help repair
The wings that other people tore.
So that I may fly with this angel,
And soar, and soar, and soar.
