lyrics

Painted Wings

Verse 1:
To one so strong, sings one so weak
What can I say to thee?
Could I thank you for your time, thank you for your love
Or is a smile enough?
I see you smiling now

Verse2:
Of one so humble, sings one so proud
I know God’s very hand picked you out
I could sing of the pain you felt, all that you endured
But it’s hard to write a single word

It’s over now
The light has pushed the darkness out

Chorus:
Let him paint the wings, on your back
He’ll set you up, to fly
And as you soar there, don’t look back
You’ve left this world of pain behind

Of one so humble, sings one so proud
And God’s very hand holds you now
Gracious heart that knew only love
Selfless care from a daughter and from above

That’s not over now
Her love will find you somehow

<Chorus>

You wear these painted wings,
on your back
He’s set you up, to fly
And now you soar there,
you don’t look back
You’ve left all of your pain behind


To one so strong, sings one so weak
What can I say to thee? Goodbye
