Carried Away on Uncertain Wings

A final declaration from my deathbed podium

Last words of a dying man to a dying world

Lived a life built by my own hands

Traveled far and wide to find myself

Foolishness turned joy to pain in time

'til I was left with only tears

So many ways for the blind to follow

All that remains, a hollow void unfilled

The plans I made have come apart at the seams

Got carried away on uncertain wings

I lay in this bed of brokenness

With my last breath, I bid farewell

Life flashes before my eyes

I choke on regret with no surprise

What of your life? Open up your eyes and see

The narrow gate far away from those who stray

The path is wide, I hear the Sirens sing

You'll be carried away on uncertain wings

Time has all run out, no more life to live

When the heart no longer beats the blood

Nothing more to give

When your soul is troubled, your will begins to sink

Call out to the One who created all things

No more aimless wandering, wasting your life

Don't be carried away on uncertain wings

Surrender all to Him, nothing else to gain

Empty cup now filled with hope

Living by His grace

When your soul is troubled, your will begins to sink

Call out to the One who created all things

No more aimless wandering, wasting your life

Don't be carried away on uncertain wings
