Isaiah 40:28-31 Freedom On Eagles' Wings
--------
Don’t you know? Haven’t you been listening?
God doesn’t come and go: God lasts
God is Creator of all you can see or imagine
Creator doesn’t get tired out, doesn’t pause to catch his breath
God knows everything, inside and out.
Creator energizes those who get tired,
gives fresh strength to dropouts
For even young people tire and drop out,
young folk in their prime stumble and fall
But those who wait upon the Lord get fresh strength
They spread their wings and soar like eagles,
They run and don’t get tired,
they walk and don’t lag behind
--------
Freedom--REAL freedom--is not a gift this world can give
God's freedom sets the soul at liberty to soar above the storms
Those eagle wings are not something the world can give
And REAL freedom is something the world cannot take away
--------
Ute Prayer:
Earth teach me freedom
as the eagle which soars in the sky.
Earth teach me regeneration
as the seed which rises in the spring.
Earth teach me to forget myself
as melted snow forgets its life.
Earth teach me to remember kindness
as dry fields weep with rain.
