MP3: Riding the Wind

Riding the Wind

Song History

I believe every boy is born with a need for adventure…but not many boys these days have a dad who knows how to help the boy learn to be a man…to walk in his true destiny. This song came as I thought about how my dad set me up for adventure – by teaching me to ride when I was about four years old…and then getting me my very own horse! When I was a boy, I read many books about adventure, from Jack London’s Call of the Wild to all the Marguerite Henry books about horses, a couple of my favorites being Misty of Chincoteague and King of the Wind. As I was growing up, I had the privilege of having several horses, my favorite being named Sugar. Sugar and I were pretty inseparable – especially during the summer – when we would ride literally all over the countryside, exploring and playing cowboys and Indians! Life was very difficult for me – growing up was hard. For several reasons, I did not learn how to be a man until later in life…and I want other boys to know better than I how to make the transition from boy to man. As you listen to this song, let it spur you ahead to look at what kind of man you would like to become.

Verse

Little boy lost

Little boy alone

Little boy gone far from home

Little boy journey

Just what will he see?

And when he finally gets there what will he be?

 

Chorus

He’s becoming the man he always dreamed he would be!

No longer bound by the world, his eyes are opened to see!

To see and believe his destiny!

This adventure is calling to the boy, “Come and see!”

Come fight the battles of men

That set the little boy free to see and believe his destiny!

And he goes riding the wind in the name of the King!

It will take him as far as he can dream!

And he goes riding the wind and the wind calls his name,  ”Son, come be free!”

Once he goes riding the wind the boy is no longer seen

For he’s becoming the man he’s called to be!

Son, come riding the wind!

Riding the wind of destiny!

 

Verse Two

Little boy captured

Prisoner of the world

Deep into the darkness he is hurled

Fighting for his honor

Fighting for his life

Fighting for the Kingdom through the night!

 

Chorus

He’s becoming the man he always dreamed he would be!

No longer bound by the world, his eyes are opened to see!

To see and believe his destiny!

This adventure is calling to the boy, “Come and see!”

Come fight the battles of men

That set the little boy free to see and believe his destiny!

And he goes riding the wind in the name of the King!

It will take him as far as he can dream!

And he goes riding the wind and the wind calls his name,  ”Son, come be free!”

Once he goes riding the wind the boy is no longer seen

For he’s becoming the man he’s called to be!

Son, come riding the wind!

Riding the wind of destiny!
