Word on a Wing
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
I don't need another change
Still you forced away
into my scheme of things
You say we're growing,
growing heart and soul
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Oh sweet name, I call you again
You're born once again for me
Just because I believe don't mean I don't think as well
Don't have to question everything
in heaven or hell
Lord, I kneel and offer you
my word on a wing
And I'm trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don't stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in
with your scheme of things?
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Just as long as I can see, I'll never stop this vision flowing
I look twice and you're still flowing
Just as long as I can walk
I'll walk beside you, I'm alive in you
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
And I'm ready to shape the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things
Ooh, ready to shape
the scheme of things
Ooh, Lord, I kneel and offer you
my word on a wing
And I'm trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don't stand in my own light
Ooh, Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
And I'm trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don't stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in
with your scheme of things?
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
I don't need another change
Still you forced away
into my scheme of things
You say we're growing,
growing heart and soul
In this age of grand illusion
You walked into my life
out of my dreams
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Sweet name, you're born once again for me
Oh sweet name, I call you again
You're born once again for me
Just because I believe don't mean I don't think as well
Don't have to question everything
in heaven or hell
Lord, I kneel and offer you
my word on a wing
And I'm trying hard to fit
among your scheme of things
It's safer than a strange land
But I still care for myself
And I don't stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in

Ooh, ready to shape

And I don't stand in my own light
Lord, lord, my prayer flies
like a word on a wing
My prayer flies
like a word on a wing
Does my prayer fit in
with your scheme of things?
