Originally written as a song to my son, who unfortunately didn't live to be born. Later I reworked it to this virtuoso motet, which got is first performance at Komvest's spring concerto 2006. The recording is from this occasion.
Listen to the soaring eagles!

If you wish to perform, publish, or just study this work, please send me a note.

Ørnesangen Live

De, der håber på Herren, får nye kræfter,
de får vinger som ørne.

Han giver den udmattede kraft,
den kraftesløse giver han ny styrke.
Drenge bliver trætte og udmattede,
unge mænd snubler og falder.

Men de, der håber på Herren, får nye kræfter,
de får vinger som ørne.

De løber uden at blive trætte,
de vandrer uden at udmattes.

Es 40,

The Eagle song

Those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength;
they will get wings like eagles.

He gives power to the feeble,
increasing the strength of him who has no force.
Even the young men will become feeble and tired,
and the best of them will come to the end of his strength;

But those who are waiting for the Lord will have new strength;
they will get wings like eagles:

running, they will not be tired,
and walking, they will have no weariness.

KJV Isaiah 40,
