On Eagle’s Wings/En Sus AlasMichael JoncasEnglish1.

You who dwell in the shelter of

the Lord, who abide in his shadow for life,say to the Lord: “My refuge,my rock in
whom I trust!” RefrainAnd he 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 his hand.
2. The snare of the fowler will never capture you, and famine will bring you no
fear:under his wings your refuge, his faithfulness your shield.3. 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.4. For to his angels he’s 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.Final RefrainAnd he 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 his hand.And hold you, hold you in the palm of his hand.Español1. Tú que
habitas al amparo del Señor,a la sombra del Dios Salvador,dile al Señor: "Mi roca,
en Ti he de confiar".EstribilloY Él te llevará en sus alas,con su aliento te
animará; resplandeciente con su luz,en sus manos el Señor te sostendrá.2. El enemigo
no te derrotará,ni el miedo vencerte podrá; bajo sus alas siempreun refugio
encontrarás.3. No has de temer nunca a la oscuridadni a la flecha que está por
volar; aunque caigan mil a tu ladoa ti no te alcanzará.4. Dios a sus ángeles ya les
ordenó que te cuiden en tu caminar.Te sostendrán en sus manosy tu pie nunca ha de
tropezar.Estribillo FinalY Él te llevará en sus alas,con su aliento te animará;
resplandeciente con su luz,en sus manos el Señor te sostendrá.En sus manos el Señor
te sostendrá.Text: Based on Psalm 91 (90); Michael Joncas; Spanish tr. by Pedro
