I Shall Be Released – Bob Dylan They say everything can be replaced Yet every distance is not near So I remember every face Of everyman who put me here I see my light come shining From the west unto the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released They say every man must need protection They say every man must fall Yet I swear I see my reflection Some place so high above this wall Standing next to me in this lonely crowd Is a man who swears he’s not to blame All day long I hear him shout so loud Crying out that he’s been framed
On Eagle’s Wings – Michael Joncas Accompaniment by Dorcas Windsor You who dwell in the shelter of our God, Who abide in this shadow for life, Say to the Lord: “My refuge, my Rock in whom I trust!” “And I 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 my hand.” The snare of the fowler will never capture you, and famine will bring you no fear: Under God’s wings your refuge, God’s faithfulness your shield. 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. For to God’s angels is 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.
