Let the Eagle Soar
by John Ashcroft
79th U.S. Attorney General Let the eagle soar like she’s never soared before.
From rocky coast to golden shore,
Let the mighty eagle soar.
Soar with healing in her wings,
As the land beneath her sings,
“Only God, no other kings.”
Let the mighty eagle soar. This eagle’s place is in the sky,
She’s still got a lot of flyin’ to do.
And you can see it in her eye,
Though she’s cried a bit from what we’ve put her through.
She’s soared above the lifted lamp that guards sweet freedom’s door.
In the dews, the damps, the watch fires of our nation torn by war. Oh, she’s far too young to die.
You can see it in her eye.
She’s not yet begun to fly.
It’s time to let the mighty eagle soar once more. Let the eagle soar like she’s never soared before.
From rocky coast to golden shore,
Let the mighty eagle soar.
Soar with healing in her wings,
As the land beneath her sings,
“Only God, no other kings.”
Let the mighty eagle soar. This country’s far too young to die.
We’ve still got a lot of climbin’ to do.
And we can make it if we try,
Built by toils and struggles God has led us through.
We’ve fought for freedom dear both here and on the distant shore.
We’ve paid a price of sacrifice, a price you can’t ignore Oh, we’re far too young to die.
We can make it if we try.
We’ve not yet begun to fly.
It’s time to let the mighty eagle soar once more. Let the eagle soar like she’s never soared before.
From rocky coast to golden shore,
Let the mighty eagle soar.
Soar with healing in her wings,
As the land beneath her sings,
“Only God, no other kings.”
Let the mighty eagle soar!
