On Eagle’s Wings

 

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
Who abide in his shadow for life
Say to the Lord: "My refuge
My Rock in whom I trust!"

 

(Refrain):

And He will raise you up on eagle's wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn
Make you to shine like the sun
And hold you in the palm of His hand.

 

You need not fear the terror of the night
Nor the arrow that flies by day
Under His wings your refuge
His faithfulness your shield.

 

For to His angels He's given a command
To guard you in all of your ways
Upon their hands they will bear you up
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

Compassionate Father

Padre Compasivo

Sobre las Alas del Águila

 

Tu que habitas en el refugio del Señor

Quien mora en su sombra de por vida

Dices al Señor: “Mi refugio, mi piedra en quien confío.”

 

Coro

Y te levantará sobre las alas de un águila

Te llevará en el momento de la madrugada

Te hará brillar como el sol

Y te sostendrá en la palma de su mano.

 

No debes temblar del temor de la noche

Ni de la flecha que vuela  durante el dia

Bajo Sus alas su refugio

Su fidelidad  tu escudo.

 

Porque a sus ángeles ha dado el mandato de

Guardarte en todos sus caminos

Sobre sus manos te llevarán

Para que no tropieces tu pie contra una piedra.
