Butterfly

by Seven Day Jesus

 

You see me,

It's not me

It's something underneath my skin

I wanna tear it all away,

And show the beauty that's within

Begin to

Come unglued

And throw away the older me

Just give it time and then you'll see

 

CHORUS:

I wanna be a butterfly,

Flying in the sky

With you, today

I wanna lose this old cocoon

I wanna do it soon,

And fly away, away

 

So tired of always crawling up the tree

To fall back down again

This lovely place where I began

It's not the place I'm gonna end

Up so before you sum up all

The missing pieces from my head

There's so much further I can get

 

(Repeat CHORUS)

 

Your wind is underneath my wing

It carries me away

It's you, my God

That makes me sing

When I'm on my way

Change a little every day

 

(Repeat CHORUS)

 

You take what's old and make it new

So I can be with you,

And fly away, away

 

========================================

 

I attended a seminar two years ago on MIRACLE OF LIFE CHANGE by Chip Ingram.  I remembered he used the illustration of caterpillar turning into a butterfly when speaking about our spiritual life change.

 

Change... what an appropriate word... I wanna lose this old cocoon, I wanna do it soon and fly away, away.
