Reach the Sky
Marlene Brehm Lyrics

Once I was in the lost in found
I felt lost and unable to find my way.

Could not see the light
I was unable to see a way out of my situation.

Living my life up in the clouds
I was living in a fantasy world, disconnected from reality.

And thinking I was right
I believed that my way of life was the correct one.

But I was going downhill faster then an avalanche
My life was rapidly spiraling out of control.

Headed straight into disaster
I was on a path to destruction.

Waiting for a crash
I knew that my situation was unsustainable.

When a little voice said follow me
I heard a quiet inner voice telling me to change my ways.

A brand new life in 1, 2, 3
I realized that I could turn my life around quickly by following this voice.

First you gotta hit your knees
The first step is to humble oneself before a higher power.

Second thing is ask him please
The second step is to ask for help from this higher power.

Come into my heart
To invite this higher power into one's life and heart.

Give me a brand new start
To ask for a fresh start and new beginning in life.

Three just follow him you'll see
The third step is to follow this higher power's guidance to understand a better life.

How wonderful his life can be
To experience the benefits of this guidance in one's life.

And sing along this melody
To joyfully express gratitude and praise through song.

Love in 1, 2, 3
The transformative power of this love is accessible in simple steps.

You won't believe the change in me
This guidance completely changed my life.

I'm shining like the sun
I am now radiant and full of joy.

He's made me so happy
This guidance has brought true contentment to my life.

Now that he's #1
This higher power is now the most important force in my life.

You ask me what my secret is
Others ask how my life has transformed so drastically.

And here is the good news
I can share the good news of this guidance with others.

This love was sent for all of us and it's waiting there for you
This guidance is available to anyone who seeks it.

It Doesn't get much easier then this
This guidance is simple and straightforward to follow.

You don't even know it yet
Even if you don't realize it, this guidance is already available to you.

But you're already his
This higher power already has a place in your life.

Another day
Another day in which I struggled.

Another empty promise
Another failed attempt at changing my ways.

Washed away
All of my efforts come to nothing.

Without at least a warning
I never saw these failures coming.

Scars remain
I carry the pain of my past failures with me.

They whisper of your story
These scars tell the tale of my past struggles.

And now you're breaking
My past failures are causing me to break down emotionally.

But the storm can never keep you down
Even the toughest challenges can be overcome with guidance.

If you hold on - you can overcome it now
With perseverance and faith, one can overcome their struggles.

On your knees is where it turns around
Surrendering to a higher power is the first step to overcoming challenges.

Cause a shell must break before a bird can fly
Sometimes, one must hit rock bottom before they can start to rise up again.

You can reach the sky
With guidance and faith, one can achieve greatness.

When the wind is blowing hard against you,
Even in challenging circumstances,

You can stand like the highest tower
One can remain grounded and strong.

Please believe you may not know the reason
Sometimes we don't understand why we face challenges.

But it will make you stronger
Challenges have the potential to make us stronger and more resilient in the end.
