Just two brothers with visions of flight
they were certain to grace the heavens that awaited
orville and wilbur had figured it right
at their moment of fate
their destiny had come to this time and place
For beyond anyone's expectations
they lifted into the skies of blue
as they all watched in anticipation
the crowd must have longed for
their own rendezvous
(chorus)
give me my wings
i'm ready to fly today
ready to wave my worries goodbye
give me my wings
i'm ready to ride away
ready to leave my troubles behind
what's over my hand will soon be under my feet
give me my wings
Those who patiently wait are made new
through the turbulent times
somehow they survive it
they will walk and not faint, this is true
through the currents of life
even though it throws them from side to side
So i'm waiting on you through the weather
we'll take a trip where the eagles dare
and we're gonna go through it together
'cause i've got your promise
you'll carry me there
(chorus)
I can sail through the trials of life
lord, you're my captain
and you're always there to guide me
i've fixed my compass
and i've set my sights on the ride
