Genesis 46:2
"And
God spake unto Israel in the visions of the night,
and said, Jacob, Jacob. And he said, Here am I."
I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard
my people cry.
All who dwell in dark and sin,
My hand will save. \
Chorus
Here am I, Lord. Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I
will go, Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.
Chorus
I, who made the stars of night,
I will
make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?
Chorus
I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne
my people’s pain.
I have wept for love of them.
They turn away.
Chorus
I will break their hearts of stone,
Give
them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my words to them.
Whom shall I send?
Chorus
I, the Lord of wind and flame,
I will send the
poor and lame.
I will set a feast for them.
My hand will save.
Chorus
Finest bread I will provide,
'Til their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?
Chorus

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.
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.
Refrain
You need not fear the terror of the night,
Nor the arrow that flies by day,
Though thousands fall
about you,
Near you it shall not come.
Refrain
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.
Refrain
