On Eagles Wings Guitar Chords and Lyrics by Michael Joncas

(I put this on capo 5 to get my lower range)

Verse: D G D G D F Dm F Gm Asus4
Chorus: A7 D Em A7 D D7 G Em A Bm F#m Em A7 D
Last Verse: D G D G D F Gm Am B A

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!"

And he will raise you up on eagles wings
Bear you on the breath of dawn, make you to shine like the sun
and hold you in the palm of his hand.

The snare of the fowler will never capture you,
And famine will bring you no fear
Under his wings your refuge
His faithfulness your shield

chorus

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

Chorus

I'm working on an arrangement for this song and I've heard the original a few times, and today I decided to listen to it again to compare it to my version and I'm so surprised to hear how different it sounds. Mine sounds happy :/ I completely changed the mood, and that might be either a good or a bad thing. I really like this version, I'm not so sure about mine now.

@himl994 I'm sure yours will be beautiful! I have the bad habit of turning every song I sing into a sad slow ballad. Even when I sang the National Anthem people came up to me later saying "thank you for your somber version in honor of the troops". I didn't realize I made it somber! lol Let me know if you post yours :)

Whatever you sing...I think it will be good cuz it comes from the heart with a beautiful face and voice in one package. I am your fan now...no matter what other people say....you are so good to listen to and I mean it. Keep it up and I will look forward to hearing you more when i am down and out. I just lost both my parents and a brother in a span of 5 months. It still hurts although it is almost a year from last Nov. 2010. Take care. Awesome talent you've got.

@daveyconcepcion Davey I'm so sorry for your incredible losses. That's so much to take in such a short time. Nobody can tell you how long it will take to heal, but little by little i hope you will be able to look back and feel less pain and more joy at the memories of the ones that you love. Thank you for your kind words. I still have to take at least 7 takes when I make these videos because I get so shy. I appreciate the encouragement! God Bless you!

My favorite song growing up in church and this is a very good praise of our God, Great Job. Shared it on my FB page :)

@lulisings

I decided to start over haha. Now it's just guitar and vocals. I recorded it yesterday but I still have to mix and master. I'm hoping to get a new mastering software so I might take a while to upload it. I'll definitely tell you if I post it. I will post it on my other channel though, because I use this channel for non religious music and the other one I use for religious music I record with my dad.

Angel, you have done more than justice. You are a mercy.
