#787: On Eagle's Wings

Okay, my timing is great, because this is yet another song where the verses have the same basic melody, but they're sufficiently different that they need to be written out one by one. Clearly this is more common than I remember. And again, the refrain is for all, the verses are "leader or all." I'm not sure if it actually qualifies as "praise genre" (it would be in the "good" section of that one!), but the low chorus makes me think that it was written for guitar, so maybe?

Joe Biden quoted this in his presidential acceptance speech, mentioning that it was a favorite of his late son, Beau. I was texting with my extended family and a relative who shall remain anonymous pointed out "Biden is quoting a hymn, I don't think Trump knew what a hymn was." No further comment needed.
