Away, away, away
(Verse 1: Shavonne)
Sitting here thinking how good You've been
You blessed me all of my days, yes You did
Yet I realize I haven't been, ooh, everything You want me to be, yeah
But if You take me, I'm more than willing to go, I wanna fly away with You
[Chorus:]:
I wanna fly away with You, I wanna soar like eagles do
I lay aside every weight as I look to the sky
Going beyond the angels closer to Your light
I wanna fly away with You
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 2: Karima)
I can't wait to see where You gonna lead me oh what joy will I find
You've treasured up for me a love eternally and peace to ease my mine
So when You call me, I'll answer You with all of my heart, I wanna fly away with You
[Chorus:]
I wanna fly away with You,
I wanna soar like eagles do
I lay aside every weight (lay aside every weight) as I look to the sky
Going beyond the angels closer to Your light
I wanna fly away with You
[Bridge:]
So when You call me, I'll answer You with all of my heart,
[Chorus:]
I wanna fly away with You,
I wanna soar like eagles do
I lay aside every weight as I look to the sky
Going beyond the angels closer to Your light
I wanna fly away with You
Away, away, away
Away, away, away
I wanna fly away with You
