''' When God Shall His Bright Wings Unfold '''



 When God shall His bright wings unfold

 And fly from Heaven’s blue

 He first will as a Dove appear

 Of pure and sparkling hue;

 The Raven’s form He’ll take

 To show there’s beauty too

 In any Bird He makes

 The oldest and the new.

 He’ll sail with Swans

 With Hawks He’ll glide

 With Cockatoo and Owl

 The chorus of the dawn He’ll sing

 He’ll dive with Waterfowl.

 As Vulture He’ll next appear

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> The Holy Bird of yore

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> Who Death does eat

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> And thus does Life restore.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> Under his wings

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> We’ll sheltered be

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> From fowler’s nets He’ll save

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> His eye will note

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> The Sparrow’s fall

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> And mark the Eagle’s grave

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> Whose Avian blood do shed

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> In idle sport and play

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> To kill God’s Holy Peace

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> That blessed the Seventh Day.

<p align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;text-align:center;"> When God shall His bright wings unfold
