Fall to Fly

She moves her tiny baby closer to the ledge

The mother eagle knows it's time for him to leave the nest

And he is free falling, discovering new wings

And as the rocks rise up to meet him he feels his mother underneath him

Sometimes you have to fall

To find out who you are

Don't be afraid to fail

Because you learn each time you try

Sometimes you have to fall to fly

Have you felt that God is slow to answer when you call

Have there been times you doubted He was ever there at all

You've been free falling and God in Heaven knows

The hardest part of loving is to let your children go

A lesser love would always hold us and try to keep us safe

But God knows when the time is right to take His hands away
