On Eagle's Wings

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.”
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
You will not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes
and see the recompense of the wicked.
Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge—
no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
You will tread on the lion and the adder;
the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
“Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he knows my name.
When he calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation.” Psalm 91

An Anthem A New Beginning - On Eagle's Wings

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.

The new day promises overwhelming encounters
new and old faces some alive with great joy
and other bearing great pain
and none of us are alone on this journey.

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.

Bound together like mountain climbers
hand over hand and feet tucked in crevices
we move like praying holding fast
to the vision the summit you have promises.

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.

We cannot look back or peer down
we are too far away from the solid earth
trusting deeply we move slowly forward
knowing we are surrounded by love.

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.

The knees tremble and the hands slip
but you hold us fast dear Creator God
your splendor surrounds us even on these rocks
and the wind sings joyful melodies for us.

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.

Let us continue on then today
let us renew our strength and begin again
knowing love will be with us and lift us
all the way.

Arising in the early morning scattered light
we seek your love dwelling in these hills
we asks for your guidance so far from home
and we need you love to hold us fast.
