Hallowed Wings
There are many roads our souls pass by,
And many things we would like to try.
But deep inside God sends us gentle urgings
That shakes the mud from off our wings so they can lift,
Sparking forth our soul's forgotten gifts.
Then once again our souls learn how to sing
With glorious, hallowed wings!
