i was weak
i was so fragile
by myself not worth that much
not worth that much at all

i was scared
i was so cold
was afraid to take a step
a step lest i should fall

yet amidst my fear of dying
i found faith enough for flying
and an endless source of freedom
for my wings

fearless in the face of danger
fearless though sometimes a stranger
i?m not afraid to tell you what i found
i?m fearless all around

i am not ashamed
i am satisfied
for to me to die is gain
and to live is Christ

i am not afraid
i am not alone
for my hope is held in this
my God is in control

though the wind is cold and biting
i can see the sun is shining
though the clouds bring rain for ruin
i see clear sky

yet amidst my fear of dying
i?ve found faith enough of flying
and an endless source of freedom
for my wings

so i fan to flame a fire
the gift of God now my desire
and i watch the word inspire
you to fly!
