The Eagle’s Cry

[title] THE EAGLE'S CRY

[Southern Gospel Country Ballad Tempo: 72-80 BPM • 4/4 Time]

Verse 1: I was ridin' the winds at the break of the dawn,
Over mountains and valleys where ages have gone,
I looked down on the cities with their towers so high,
And remembered old Babel reaching into the sky.

The Lord scattered their language across all the earth,
Yet mankind keeps forgetting what His mercy is worth,
Still reaching for glory while leaving God behind,
Trading Heaven's truth for the pleasures of the mind.

Chorus: I hear the eagle cry over a world gone astray,
Calling wounded hearts back to the Ancient Way,
The signs are all around us, mercy's call still sings,
But many never notice the warning in my wings.

Come home, come home while Heaven's door is wide,
Run into the arms of the Savior crucified,
Before the trumpet sounds and every soul must stand,
Come home to Yeshua (Jesus) while there's time in this land.

Verse: I remember blind eyes opening at His command,
And storm waves growing silent at the touch of His hand,
I remember Lazarus walking out of the grave,
And thousands fed by miracles only God's love could make.

Now good is called evil and evil called good,
The things once called sin are embraced as they should,
Isaiah's warning echoes louder every year,
And I see its fulfillment drawing ever near.

Chorus: I hear the eagle cry over a world gone astray,
Calling wounded hearts back to the Ancient Way,
The signs are all around us, mercy's call still sings,
But many never notice the warning in my wings.

Bridge: I've seen kingdoms rising, and I've seen kingdoms fall,
I've watched the hand of God moving through it all,
Above the noise of nations one truth remains the same,
Only those who know the Shepherd will enter Heaven's gate.

Final Chorus: I hear the eagle cry as the evening shadows fall,
One last plea for sinners, one last Gospel call,
The Judge is standing ready, the hour's drawing near,
Yet grace still reaches every heart willing to hear.

Come home, come home, don't wait another day,
The cross still stands victorious and the stone was rolled away,
The King is soon returning, His promise still is true,
And Heaven's gates stand open for those who follow through.

Outro: So I spread my wings toward Heaven,
As tears fall from my eyes,
Praying for the lost below me,
Before the final sunrise.

Come home... come home...
