i was weak
i was so fragile
by myself not worth that much
not worth that much at all
i was scared
i was so cold
was afraid to take a step
a step lest i should fall
yet amidst my fear of dying
i found faith enough for flying
and an endless source of freedom
for my wings
fearless in the face of danger
fearless though sometimes a stranger
iâ"š¬â"ž¢m not afraid to tell you what i found
iâ"š¬â"ž¢m fearless all around
i am not ashamed
i am satisfied
for to me to die is gain
and to live is Christ
i am not afraid
i am not alone
for my hope is held in this
my God is in control
though the wind is cold and biting
i can see the sun is shining
though the clouds bring rain for ruin
i see clear sky
yet amidst my fear of dying
iâ"š¬â"ž¢ve found faith enough of flying
and an endless source of freedom
for my wings
so i fan to flame a fire
the gift of God now my desire
and i watch the word inspire
you to fly...!
