Perched upon a mighty cliff
that overlooks the waves
No sound of building houses
or roads that must be paved
I never really thought about it
until the other day
Storm rolled in and I watched the sparrow just up and fly away

And if I were a sparrow
I'd fly high enough to see
Beyond my circumstances
to a place God has for me

Release me to another place
no human eye can see
My spirit cries for lullabyes
My Savior's love complete
The sun is whispering in the sky
and for awhile I'll stare
Waiting for another day
of gliding through the air

And if I were a sparrow
I'd fly high enough to see
Beyond my cicumstances
To a place God has for me

Though I;ll never fly with sparrows wings, still I know he watches me
