Lyrics

When an eagle flies by I think of you
Gliding high majestically in the blue
At every dusk and dawn
I think of you, while life moves on
I see you flying free and strong

You are an Eagle, King of the sky
Soaring high in Heaven, wings open wide
Whenever I feel the fear your wings appear
You gave me strength, showed me how to believe
To reach high, work hard, never give up on the dream
In so many different ways you lived in faith
No one can take your place

You made friends with everyone you knew
You found joy in every little thing that you’d do
And even through your pain
You always felt sunshine through the rain
I see gliding, flying with grace

You are an Eagle, King of the sky
Soaring high in Heaven, wings open wide
Whenever I feel the fear your wings appear
You gave me strength, showed me how to believe
To reach high, work hard, never give up on the dream
In so many different ways you lived in faith
No one can take your place

This world will never feel the same, one less shining light
But I hold your belief in me, each day it lifts me high

You are an Eagle, King of the sky
Soaring high in Heaven, wings open wide
Whenever I feel the fear your wings appear
You gave me strength, showed me how to believe
To reach high, work hard, never give up on the dream
In so many different ways you lived in faith
No one can take your place

You are an Eagle, King of the sky
Soaring high in Heaven, wings open wide
You are an Eagle, King of the sky
Soaring high in Heaven, wings open wide
You lived a life in faith
No one else on earth can take your place
