Flying through the valley; looking down at life
How can I escape from envy, shame and strife
Take me to the ocean; set my heart on fire
Give me life, give me death, give me my desire
Floating upon rainbows or life streaming from my eyes
Climbing on a mountain or freefalling from the skies
Fading into darkness; lifeless endless pain
If only for a moment I had more to gain

Failing to cooperate; pacing endless nights
Feeling lonely gloom as deepening sorrow bites
Coming to my senses; I'm not alone at all
Jesus is there to catch me; everytime I fall
Feeling a Holy presence; stirring up inside
Lifted into the Spirit; I'm ready to take a ride
Showering shame and doubt begin to clear away
I scream very loud; oh Lord can I stay
He says my life is not over; I have many missions to go
But without the Holy Spirit; nothing at all will flow
Reaching to resist and take hold of His hand
I find myself lying facedown in the sand
A very light whisper says get up and face the day
Because before you know it; I will be on my way
I'll take you to a land filled with milk and honey
Never will you want again or have need for money
Every tear and pain will disappear and no more crying ever
You will be in my presence standing before my throne; eternally satisfied with no more grief, forever
