What If I Fly | One Voice Children’s Choir Covers Cody Fry

One Voice Children’s Choir covers “What If” by Cody Fry — a reminder that fear and wonder often live in the exact same place. It just depends on how you look at it.

We chose to cover “What If” because it hits right at the heart of that overwhelming feeling of staring into the unknown and wondering — what if everything goes wrong?

It’s so easy to let fear rewrite our future before we even give ourselves a chance.

But this song turns that question on its head: what if it all works out? What if you actually fly?

A Song About Choosing Hope Through Children’s Voices

“Maybe the fear just means I’m alive. Maybe I’ll fall. But what if I fly?”

What If has always been about that moment when fear and possibility collide — when the what ifs in your head can either hold you back or push you forward. It’s about choosing to see the view instead of fearing the fall.

For the choir, this song felt deeply personal.

As young people, they understand what it’s like to stand at the edge of something unknown and let fear talk them out of trying. This performance became a way to say something simple but powerful:

Taking a leap of faith isn’t about having zero doubt. It’s about choosing hope anyway.

When they sing “what if I fly,” it becomes more than a question.

It becomes a decision.

Why This Song Still Matters

In a world that often rewards playing it safe, “What If” offers something different — permission to take the leap anyway, even when you’re not sure where you’ll land.

This song reminds us that:

• Fear doesn’t mean stop — it often means you’re onto something worth doing
• The what ifs that keep us up at night are worth examining, not avoiding
• At the end of your life, you’ll remember what you tried — not what you were afraid of
  
  

Through music, this performance creates space for courage, hope, and possibility — something every generation needs to be reminded of.

A Message That Connects Us

This video wasn’t just about creating a beautiful performance — it was about creating a moment of permission.

Permission to try. Permission to fail. Permission to fly anyway.

For the choir, filming this at sunrise in the red rocks was a reminder that some moments deserve to be as big as the sky above them.

The hope is that when you watch, you feel brave enough to ask yourself the question.

And maybe, just maybe, choose to fly.
