Religion
Exodus 19:4: I bare you on eagles wings, and brought you, &c
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
Religion
As an eagle cleaves the air,
Whose wings support her young,
Jesus doth His people bear.
As swift, as smooth, as strong!
Saviour, urge Thy rapid flight.
Soar to that sublime abode,
Bear us far above all height,
And bring us home to God.
