Eagle Wings

    
    
    In the still of the night,
    	amidst a peculiar dream,
    		upon a rugged hill,
    			absorbed in moonlights' beam.
    The shadow of an eagle,
    	washed across the ground,
    		such an awesome wonder,
    			captured in silent sound.
    Then I saw the eagle,
    	touching the stars on high,
    		pounding the wind,
    			bellowing victory's cry.
    Grand glory and vigor,
    	like I had never seen,
    		a warrior of splendor,
    			so profound and keen.
    The freedom unveiled,
    	a new essence adored,
    		a mirrored reflection,
    			fashioned by Jesus, my Lord.
    Praise to the Kind,
    	thus my heart sings,
    		glory, glory alleluia,
    			blessed with eagle wings!

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. Isaiah 40:31
