Reach out a wing
And help me find the strength I need
To climb out of this hole
Filled with despair
~~~
Can’t go alone, oh no
I need a helping hand
Heaven holds
The answer to my prayer
~~~
Long ago my momma cried
That awful sad sad day
When my daddy died
I saw what you could do
~~~
Now, she’s gone and left me here
The end for her
Was far too near
Why does life always end up this way
~~~
Reach out a wing to me
Show me God’s own grace
Lift me from this valley where I’m found
Reach out a wing to me
Save me in this place
Let me see the goodness all around
Reach out a wing to me
Won’t you, won’t you please…
Reach out a wing
~~~
Now I’m in my fifties
And I finally found the truth
The strength I needed then
Deep down inside
~~~
I hope my children see today
What I missed so miserably
Way back when, yeah
All those years in pride
~~~
And I know momma would be proud
The helpful hand out in the crowd
Loving those
Who never found their way
~~~
I guess this was just the time
When God’s great plan began to shine
And showed me what’s inside
Of one man’s grace
~~~
Reach out a wing to me
Show me God’s own grace
Lift me from this valley where I’m found
Reach out a wing to me
Save me in this place
Let me see the goodness all around
Reach out a wing to me
Show me God’s own grace
Lift me from this valley where I’m found
Reach out a wing to me
Save me in this place
Let me see the goodness all around
Reach out a wing to me
Won’t you, won’t you please…
Reach out a wing
Reach out a wing
Reach – out- your- wing
