Why Walk When You Can Fly - Mary Chapin Carpentner

[Gazared]

When I was three, I would listen to this song and run around the house, bouncing off the walls and jumping on my dad's little exercise trampoline, pretending to fly. And then came that glorious day when I found the repeat button on my dad's stereo.

Now that I understand the meaning, the only difference is that I get chills. And I don't have that trampoline to help me fly anymore.

Jubilee is another jewel in Carpenter's repertoire that deserves to be heard. Together these two songs are a powerful affirmation of what is possible.

I am reminded of this, by Shakespeare:

"What a piece of work is man!

How noble in reason!

How infinite in faculties!

In form and moving how express and admirable!

In action how like an angel!

In apprehension how like a god!"

And if we do not, as humanity, live up to this, it is only through ignorance of our own nature.

God bless all beings on this sweet and dusty road!

Life is long enough why walk when you can fly.

Why take ,when you could be given.

By being a good man , you loose nothing but you can gain a lots ground.

No word can express my feeling about the words being used in this extraordinary song . God bless you by posting this song

@rosesredvioletsblue Isaiah 40:31 is my favorite scripture!

Thank you, again! God is using you in a mighty way, dear friend.

[beanscot]

@rosesredvioletsblue Sometimes I think it's more about what God is doing in me when I make these videos, so I'm very grateful when it touches others as well.

It can be so hard to wait upon the Lord but the end result is wonderful!
