On Eagle’s Wings
|
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
Who abide in this shadow for life
Say to the Lord “My refuge...my rock in whom I trust!”
And I will raise you up on eagle’s wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of my hand
Snares of the fowler will never capture you
And famine will bring you no fear
Under God’s wings your refuge with faithfulness your shield
For to the angels God’s given a command
To guard you in all of your ways
Upon their hands they will bear you up
lest you dash your foot against a stone
And I will raise you up on eagle’s wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of my hand.
