I can fly higher than the skies,
Higher than the heavens.
But only when You are the wind beneath my wings,
Only when You have held my hand tight.
For You are my fuel,
And my inspiration for something bigger.
I can soar amongst the eagles,
And even among the treacherous Andies.
But only when You are the sound that accompanies my flapping,
The echo that hits the rocks and comes back.
For You are my love,
And my want for something better.
I can live amongst the elite of the crowd,
And even amongst the most despicable, and yet be a Man.
But only when You are the one that redeems me,
The salvation that frees me.
For You are my life,
And my desire to live life whole-heartedly.
- Vinu.
