You soared so high, you flew so far
You felt like you could fly beyond the stars
But isn't it like life to let you down
And leave your heart in pieces on the ground
When sparrows fall from lofty heights
When wings aren't strong enough for flight
When sparrows fall and dreams lay shattered
And all hope is out of sight
God saw the climb, He sees the crawl
He'll pick you up when you may call
He cares for you, He sees it all
When sparrows fall
The bitter winds can start to blow
And stormy skies can rock your very soul
And you wonder how you wound up in this place
With such an overwhelming need for grace
When sparrows fall from lofty heights
When wings aren't strong enough for flight
When sparrows fall and dreams lay shattered
And all hope is out of sight
God saw the climb, He sees the crawl
He'll pick you up when you may call
He cares for you, He sees it all
When sparrows fall
So don't ever think your sorrows go unnoticed
For our Lord is well acquainted with your grief
Even when you think you're all alone
He's there to break your fall and whisper peace, sweet peace
When sparrows fall from lofty heights
When wings aren't strong enough for flight
When sparrows fall and dreams lay shattered
And all hope is out of sight
God saw the climb, He sees the crawl
He'll pick you up when you may call
He cares for you, He sees it all
When sparrows fall
