This day, God but granted you wings
You will see heaven and amazing things

You're here in my arms, I now must release
You will fly on tiny wings of love and peace

I wish I had wings, this would be my dream
Together we'd fly over fields and streams

I must be realistic when I look ay your sweet face
This journey you must take alone in God's good grace

It's very hard for mom and dad to say their last good-bye
We'll look for your tiny wings anongst the stars in the sky

Your wings will sparkle and the Angels will sing
For this day, God but granted you wings.
