on the catapult, in my rail, stripped-down, scatter built, launched to fail. lived and learned. crashed and burned. token badge of honor earned.. all the wisdom that I've spurned... stop the madness, I've returned! take it from a fool sojourned far and wide, on the side, barely tried, let it slide in all his pride skinned his hide. learned to let God's wisdom guide learned to let His love inside found that place where I can ride high upon the rising tide swelling up with this one boast Father, Son and Holy Ghost who took my least and gave the most took this beast and broke his post made a feast of burned-out toast raised me up with heavenly host now I have a space to pray now I know why wise men say humble is the greater way simple pleasures make the day I remember how I cried In the embers as I fried super heating up inside I was feeling so denied Lord, you heard my secret prayer Med-evac'd me out of there Brought me to this precious space Set me in an open place Caused me to go out in style Left my foes to their dogpile Overlooking all the while All the shortfalls of my guile Till the gold's removed from dross Till the hold redeems the loss I'll defer to You, "Air Boss" Find Your favor at the cross Take up my electric chair Go where only angels fare Fly away without a care Where Evel Kanievel wouldn't dare Resurrected in the air in this craft which You prepare fueled by faith, yes, take me there Hear again, my secret prayer.
