Oh, for a heart that does not ache
And for a backbone that won't break
For some steady feet or sturdy ground
A road that isn't gonna let me
Turn around and run
For a thousand tongues to sing
To wear wisdom like Solomon's robe
For the patience and perspective
Of a man like Job
Just to soar on wings of eagles
For no other reason
Than the bird's eye view
For a flight or two
And the list gets longer
Who I wish I was
And was no longer
I never could be good enough
To measure up
But You want to take me as I come
You're the only one that can
So take me as I am
Oh, to feel hope in hopeless times
Never mind the silver lining
'Cause the clouds are fine
And for a backbone that won't break
For some steady feet or sturdy ground
A road that isn't gonna let me
Turn around and run
For a thousand tongues to sing
To wear wisdom like Solomon's robe
For the patience and perspective
Of a man like Job
Just to soar on wings of eagles
For no other reason
Than the bird's eye view
For a flight or two
And the list gets longer
Who I wish I was
And was no longer
I never could be good enough
To measure up
But You want to take me as I come
You're the only one that can
So take me as I am
Oh, to feel hope in hopeless times
Never mind the silver lining
'Cause the clouds are fine
