The Children of Men and Eagles
Oh the children of eagles must fly,
But what about the children of men?
Sons of Adam,
And daughters of Eve?
What must they do?
Must they leave hearth and home?
Go out on their own?
Into the world so harsh,
Indeed they must,
As surely as eagles must fly,
So must our children leave our hearths and homes.
And face the world,
Its dangers and snares,
Pray you’ve trained them well,
Those sons and daughters,
Whom you send forth,
Because will you or nil you,
They will go!
