Chorus:
Lord send me down those borrowed wings to lift my spirit up high
Cleanse my heart and claim my soul; unto You dear Lord I cry
Verse 1:
I began to pray as a little girl in church on Sunday morn
I learned that God is full of love and something to be adored
I prayed to God for guidance and peace so my heart never strayed
I asked forgiveness in times of need and all along the way
Chorus:
Lord send me down those borrowed wings to lift my spirit up high
Cleanse my heart and claim my soul; unto You dear Lord I cry
Verse 2:
As the years rolled past I learned about God’s mercy and His grace
I understood God lives in me no matter of time nor place
I prayed to God to find other souls; to set their spirits free
I ask of you to hear His word; I ask on bended knee
Chorus:
Lord send me down those borrowed wings to lift my spirit up high
Cleanse my heart and claim my soul; unto You dear Lord I cry.
