1165. Have you not heard?

Author: Geoff Taylor

Have you not heard?
Was it never told to you
that he who brought a universe to birth
can raise up nations and then
bring them to nothing again—
the sovereign over heaven and earth?

But those who run will not grow weary
and those who walk will never faint,
for those who trust him will renew their strength
and rise on eagles’ wings!

2. Have you not heard?
Was it never told to you
that he who made the moon, the stars, the sun,
as part of salvation’s plan
came to our earth as a man
and gave his life—God’s only Son?

So those who run will not grow weary
and those who walk will never faint,
for those who trust him will renew their strength
and rise on eagles’ wings!

3. Have you not heard?
Was it never told to you
that he who sits enthroned in heaven above
is watching over his sheep
and will not slumber or sleep
but guards us with his endless love?

So those who run will not grow weary
and those who walk will never faint;
for those who trust him will renew their strength
and rise on eagles’ wings,
and rise on eagles’ wings!
