On Eagles' Wings

I have flown Through the sky I have danced In the wind I have sung With the birds And I will love Again But for now I will cry Tears of sorrow Till I die What is right And what is wrong People blind All along Prejudice and hate Burning blazing fire Open the floodgates And douse the rising ire. Love your neighbor as yourself Lift up your voice and with us cry All glory to the Lord on High I will fly On eagles’ wings Through the sky As voices sing

We all tend to be blind to the unfairness in our lives, just because we are raised to believe that unfairness is a thing of the past. It's not, and we need to realize that. -Olivia
