A moment of eternity is all I care to know,
But I keep myself from finding it, 'cause I'm scared of where I go,
I need to see'
That my faith will not fly when my heart is held down by the weight of my mind,
Caging thoughts that I know must be free.
A paradox of destiny, my life inside a frame,
I could choose my liberty, but then I'm the one to blame,
I must learn to see'
That my faith will not fly when my heart is held down by the weight of my mind,
Caging thoughts that I know,
When my faith will not fly and my heart is held down by the weight of my mind,
Caging thoughts that I know must be free.
I can trust my God with all my might, in the light of what I know,
But if I close the door on doubt I find, then the light can never grow,
Help me see'
That my faith will not fly when my heart is held down by the weight of my mind,
Caging thoughts that I know,
When my faith will not fly and my heart is held down by the weight of my mind,
Caging thoughts that I know must be free,
It must be free.
