| Fly Like A Bird |

Dodododododa...
Dodododododa dorooroo doo...
Weeping may endure for a night
But joy comes in the morning
Yeaah, yeah
Dodododododa (oooh)
Dodododododa dorooroo
Trust Him

Verse 1
Somehow I know that
There's a place up above
With no more hurt and struggling
Free of all atrocities and suffering
Because I feel the unconditional love
From one who cares enough for me
To erase all my burdens
And let me be free to

Chorus
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don’t let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of you by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray you’ll come and carry me home

Verse 2
Can we recover
Will the world ever be
A place of peace and harmony
With no war and with no brutality
If we loved each other
We would find victory
But in this harsh reality
Sometimes I’m so despondant
That I feel the need to

Chorus 2
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need You now Lord
Carry me high
Don't let the world break me tonight
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You’ll come and carry me home

Bridge
Dodododododa...
He said he'll never forsake you
Or leave you alone
Dodododododa dorooroo doo...
Trust Him
I need you now right now Lord
I need you right here by my side
Keep your head up to the sky
With God's love you'll survive

Outro
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky
I need you now Lord
Carry me high
Don’t let the world break me tonight
(Please don't let the world, the world, the world
Brake me tonight, tonight, tonight)
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
I pray You’ll come and (I pray) carry me home
(You'll come and take me home..)
Carry me high
Fly like a bird
Take to the sky (I, I need)
I need You now Lord (I need you Lord)
Carry me high (carry me high Lord)
Don't let the world break me tonight
(cause I think I deserve to survive)
I need the strength of You by my side
Sometimes this life can be so cold
(Life can be so cold)
I pray You’ll come and carry me home
(Oh, carry me home, oh, carry me home)

Carry me higher, higher, higher
(Hiiiigher)
Carry me higher, higher, higher
(I need you to carry me)
Carry me higher, higher, higher
(Carry me high Lord)
Carry me higher, higher, higher
(Carry me high Lord)
Carry me higher, higher, higher
(Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah)
Carry me higher, higher, higher
(Oooo)
Carry me home
Higher Jesus
Carry me higher
