The Eagle


As I have watched an eagle fly
A lesson I have learned
They seem to be so carefree
From cares and all concerns
When they need to be renewed
To the mountain top they fly
And allow themselves to be refreshed
And I think I know why

Its there they find the quietness
Away from all distress
Its there also with God alone
Our souls will too be blessed
When we allow His Spirit
To refresh and to renew
We will come out much better
As His presence enfolds you

It`s there in his presence
Our souls receive new life
So we can carry on again
Amidst the toil and strife
Its always in the quietness
That we will be renewed
As we allow His Spirit
To breathe in us life anew

We must be still and know
That He desires to be
Our All in All, all the time
Our all sufficiency
So my precious friend
Allow the Lord today
To minister to your heart
In His own special way

Allow Him again to show you
Just exactly who He is
Just relax in His precious love
And remember you are His.
