Somehow I know that

There's a place up above

With no more hurt and struggling

Free of all atrocities and suffering

Because I feel the unconditional love

From one who cares enough for me

To erase all my burdens

And let me be free to



[chorus]

Fly like a bird

Take to the sky

I need you now Lord

Carry me high

Don't let the world break me tonight

I need the strength of you by my side

Sometimes this life can be so cold

I pray you'll come and carry me home



Can we recover

Will the world ever be

A place of peace and harmony

With no war and with no brutality

If we loved each other

We would find victory

But in this harsh reality

Sometimes I'm so despondant

That I feel the need to



[chorus]

Fly like a bird

Take to the sky

I need You now Lord

Carry me high

Don't let the world break me tonight

I need the strength of You by my side

Sometimes this life can be so cold

I pray You'll come and carry me home



Keep your head to the sky

With God's love you'll survive



Fly like a bird

Take to the sky

I need you now Lord

Carry me high

Don't let the world break me tonight

I need the strength of You by my side



Sometimes this life can be so cold

I pray You'll come and carry me home

Carry me higher, higher, higher

Carry me higher, higher, higher

Carry me home

Higher Jesus

Carry me higher Lord
