Lyrics
Fly like a bird to the Lord, my soul
I want to soar like an eagle
Though I may journey far away from home
I know I’ll never be alone
Oh, God, you know who I am
You know my hopes and my dreams
In my pondering & fears
In my joy and in my tears
Oh God, your presence is real.
Fly like a bird to the Lord, my soul
I want to soar like an eagle
Though I may journey far away from home
I know I’ll never be alone
Where can I run from your love
Where can I hide from my God
From the dawn of morning’s light
To the darkness of the night
Oh, God, your presence is real
Fly like a bird to the Lord, my soul
I want to soar like an eagle
Though I may journey far away from home
I know I’ll never be alone
