The Australian Wedge-Tailed Eagle The Wedge-Tailed eagle is an impressive sight soaring above the vast Australian Outback.  Aquila audax (meaning bold eagle) covers an impressive range from the snow covered peaks of the Snowy Mountains and the southern island of Tasmania to sun roasted plains of the vast interior.  Quoting one source of reference the "wedgie" (as the bird is affectionately known) the bird is the fourth largest in the world's eagle family, with a wing span of 3 metres, and weighing between 2.5 and     4 Kg (5.5 to 8.8 lbs).  The spectacular bird is capable of prodigious feats of strength, such as killing prey of twice its weight and size and carrying almost its own bodyweight.  Standard equipment for the wedge-tail are wings that allow it to soar for endless hours over the hot interior and dive at its pray at speeds of 100kph (70mph) and eyes five to six times as powerful as a human's, and claws that clamp with a three tonne force.   With their commanding eaerial ability the bird can skim the canyon floors or soar to heights beyond 6000 feet. Is 41:31 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shal run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. (KJV)   Arranged & HTML by Marina @ CookysHome.

     And O, My God When I in Awesome Wonder,
Consider all the works Thy Hands,have made, 
I see the Stars, I hear the rolling Thunder,
Thy Pow'r throughout the Universe displayed.

Chorus:
       Then Sings my Soul, My Saviour God toThee;          How Great Thou Art, How Great Thou Art!
Then Sing my Soul, My Saviour God to Thee;
How Great Thou Art, How Great Thou Art!

When through the woods and forest glades I wonder,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;
When I look down from lofty mountain granduer,
And hear the brook, and feel the gentle Breeze

Chorus.

And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in,
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.

Chorus.

When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what Joy shall fill my heart,
Then I shall bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, My God, How Great Thou Art.

AMEN.
