Like an Eagle Port Elizabeth

Like an Eagle

Isiah 40:31

LORD push me from my cosy nest
Where I feel so secure
In YOU alone I find true rest,
YOUR promises are sure.

Though mountains may be rough and steep
And storms and wind prevail,
YOUR mighty power will always keep
YOUR love will never fail.

At times I feel I’ve little worth
I flap my wings and try
To rise above the things of earth –
LORD, teach me how to fly.

YOU are the wind beneath my wings
I’ll put my hope in YOU,
What comfort, joy and peace it brings
When YOU my strength renew.
