You are precious, more than I could express,
Melodies and words are poor at best,
You are a gift to me, a treasure from Heaven.
You were created to fly, to decorate the blue sky,
Show the world your colourful wings, my butterfly.
Little one, are you frightened of the sky?
It's alright, sometimes even daddies have to cry,
Give your heart to the wind; I know you're gonna make it.
You were created to fly, to decorate the blue sky,
Show the world your colourful wings, my butterfly.
Now I long to show how truly I love you, when you are at home and I am away,
The Father above is near enough to hold you,
Remember me, love, tonight when you pray.
You were created to fly, to decorate the blue sky,
Show the world your colourful wings, my butterfly,
Butterfly, you're free.
