| The Eagle |
| The eagle soars above it all, |
| He has a heavenly view; |
| And we with wings of spiritual power, |
| Can rise above it too. |
| The runner may have many things, |
| To block his goal from view; |
| But we, with Jesus as our source, |
| Our strength He will renew. |
| Although we may not soar or run, |
| Though walking be our lot; |
| Still, we can forward move each day, |
| To faint, our hearts need not. |
| “Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: 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” (Isaiah 40:30-31). |
