In strong branches that reach the sky
Eagles first begin to soar
Never stopping to wonder why-
Created to glide and explore.
Faithful eagles take great care
of their young ones without rest
instructing them to prepare
for their flight beyond the nest.
And they journey from land to sea
In the warm rays of the sun
They strive to live courageously
Until their purposed course is done.
There's a lesson here for us.
Have we flown beyond our nest-
Bold and trustworthy for God's Son
Sharing our faith with all the rest...
Unceasing should our efforts be
Our prayers spoken tenderly
Witnessing for His Kingdom bright
Helping others to know His Light.
Isaiah 40:31
But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew
their strength; they shall mount up with
wings as eagles; they shall run, and not
be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
