Innocent Angel (Born With a Broken Wing)
(Lyrics By Michael Logan)
[Verse 1]
Innocent angel born with a broken wing
Tear-stained face is all that she sees
A broken heart from the memories of past
In search of a love that just would not last
[Verse 2]
She learned to smile just to hide her pain
Laughed through the thunder, danced in the rain
But every night she’d kneel and pray
“Lord, will the hurt ever go away?”
[Verse 3]
A child of sorrow in a world so cold
Carrying burdens no child should hold
She built her walls with silent cries
Hoping no one would see the pain in her eyes
[Chorus]
Now, innocent angel, mend your broken wing
Fly up to heaven and let your voice ring
Yes, innocent angel, mend your broken wing
Fly high into heaven and let your soul sing
Let it echo through the stars so bright
You’ve made it through the longest night
[Verse 4]
She gave her heart though it came back torn
Felt every rose was wrapped in thorn
But still she loved with all she had
Even when the world treated her bad
[Bridge]
But love—real love—was waiting above
A Father's arms, full of endless love
He saw her tears, He knew her name
And whispered, "My child, I felt your pain."
[Verse 5]
Now she’s standing clothed in grace
No more fear behind her face
The chains are gone, the scars have healed
A soul once hidden now revealed
[Chorus]
Innocent angel, mend your broken wing
Fly up to heaven, let redemption sing
Yes, innocent angel, you’ve found your home
Where no more sorrow will ever roam
[Outro]
Fly, fly… where the light never ends
On wings of mercy the Savior sends
You’ve cried your last, you’ve fought your fight
Now rest in love, bathed in His light
Innocent angel… now take flight
