Our Eagle Scouts

by Emily M. Parris 

The eagle is a magnificent bird 
Who soars with graceful ease 
He's a symbol of our heritage 
As he glides upon the breeze 

He's a symbol of our freedom 
In his soaring boundless flight 
A beacon for humanity 
And a splendid, noble sight 

His huge wingspan maneuvers him 
In boundless soaring flight 
Oh eagle, in your majesty 
May we follow you tonight 

May we soar like eagles on the wings 
Of dreams composed of light 
Oh, eagle, in your splendor 
May we follow you tonight
