You’ve been running and your steps have not grown weary
You’ve been walking and somehow you did not faint
You’ve read the word and come to this conclusion
That good things truly come to those who wait
There’ve been times that you have soared on wings as eagles
And sometimes all you could do was sit and cry
There’s good news just ahead on the horizon
So you better keep one eye toward the sky
"Cause it’s almost time to fly
Yeah, you’re about to spread your wings
And soar across the sky
You’ve had your share of troubles
But you tell them goodbye
‘Cause it’s almost time to fly
Some glad morning when this life down here is over
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
We will leave this world behind to claim a new one
We won’t even have the time to say goodbye
Right before our eyes the sky will burst wide open
As old Gabriel starts to play a welcome song
I can’t tell you just the moment this will happen
But I know for sure it won’t be very long
‘Cause it’s almost time to fly
Yeah, you’re about to spread your wings
And soar across the sky
You’ve had your share of troubles
But you tell them goodbye
‘Cause it’s almost time to fly
You’re about to spread your wings
And soar across the sky
You’ve had your share of troubles
But you tell them goodbye
‘Cause it’s almost time to fly
