Full Song Lyrics
Verse 1:
In a small church South of Nashville I learned my
Christian ways
We would lift our voices to give the lord his praise
Singing holy rock of ages only you can set me free
Fill me with your glory give me life eternally
(Fill)
There will come a time when he calls the faithful home
Breaks our earthly bonds of life and leads us to the
throne
Chorus:
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Verse 2:
Every Sunday rain or shine we would all come through the
door
Hymn books in our laps we'd bow our heads and wait for
more
Preacher John Lee was a powerful man he stood about six
foot four
He had a voice that boomed like thunder, I swear it
nearly shook the floor
Chorus:
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Ride:
Verse 3:
The room got deathly still as John Lee bowed his head in
prayer
Calling on the power that would lift him from his
chair
He would stalk the floor like a lion in a cage with the
good book in his hand
The holy ghost would fill the room as he called out the
name of the lamb
Chorus:
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Watch me fly Watch me fly
When Jesus lifts me up into the sky
Chorus x 3
