Story Behind The Song
I wrote this based on 2 Cor. 5:17 which says, "Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, they are a new creation. The old is gone, the new has come." Butterflies are a theme in my ministry, and this song is a perfect example of who we are in Christ!

Lyrics
Watch Me Fly
Words and music by Jill Miller ©2012
I've been up and I've been down, I've been crawling all around this cold, hard ground
God's been waiting patiently, love has got its hold on me and I believe
I can do anything if I let grace give me wings
To fly..........break free from just getting by
Gonna soar..........take back my life and a little bit more
I know God is shining His light, He wants me to get things right
So he can watch me fly..................oh.....
Watch me fly....................oh.......
I'm changing from the inside out, no more thinking life's about the in crowd
That's not me and that's okay, I'll take different any day then I can say
That I know who I am, I'm a daughter of the lamb
I'm gonna fly..........break free from just getting by
Gonna soar..........take back my life and a little bit more
I know God is shining His light, He wants me to get things right
So he can watch me fly..................oh.....
Watch me fly....................oh.......
In Christ I have salvation and I am a new creation in my Father's eyes
No more feeling I'm defeated, things go wrong I know I'll beat it
God is by my side
Fly..........break free from just getting by
Gonna soar..........take back my life and a little bit more
I know God is shining His light, He wants me to get things right
So he can watch me fly..................oh.....
Watch me fly....................oh.......
