On Eagle’s Wings
Michael Joncas – On Eagle’s Wings
Lyrics
Verse 1 You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord Who abide in His shadow for life Say to the Lord, "My refuge, my rock in whom I trust!" Chorus And He will raise you up on eagles' wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His hand Verse 2 The snare of the fowler will never capture you And famine will bring you no fear Under His wings your refuge, His faithfulness your shield Verse 3 You need not fear the terror of the night Nor the arrow that flies by day Though thousands fall about you, near you it shall not come Verse 4 For to His angels He'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 Final Chorus And He will raise you up on eagles' wings Bear you on the breath of dawn Make you to shine like the sun And hold you in the palm of His hand And hold you, hold you in the palm of His hand
