I asked the Lord for wings
I longed to fly away…
Beyond the horizon
To a place of no sorrows
A land without tears and fears
I asked the Lord for wings
These burdens I can no longer carry
Depressed and in despair
I closed my eyes to sleep
And dreamt of flying away
I asked the Lord for wings
Maybe I’ll find a place of unlimited bliss
In the distant land
I awoke and nothing had changed
So I closed my eyes again
I asked the Lord for wings
Although He said 'NO'
He gave me something better
For which I am eternally grateful
This time I close my eyes to whisper praise
I asked the Lord for wings
He gave me courage for the crisis
A still peace within to face the storm
His hand to hold me tight
And his love to gladden my heart.
If you died today, are you absolutely certain that you would go to heaven? You can be! TRUST JESUS NOW
