Fly

Lyrics

[Intro] Choir: Rise up, Philadelphia! Give Him praise for the victory! Lead: From the first whistle to the final play, We stood together and we made a way. Twenty-four on our side, twenty-two behind, A hard-fought blessing at the finish line. [Verse 1] Green jerseys moving with purpose and fire, Every tough yard taking us higher. When the pressure came, we did not bend, Faith in the huddle, strength to the end. The crowd kept shouting, the whole town knew, Philadelphia battled and followed through. [Pre-Chorus] When the road got narrow, We held on tight. Grace gave us courage, And courage brought the fight. [Chorus] Hallelujah, we won that one! Twenty-four to twenty-two, the victory’s done! Philadelphia, lift your voice and say: The Eagles flew strong on week one today! Holy Ghost power, let the praises rise, Blessings on the field and joy in our eyes. Hallelujah, let the whole world know: Philadelphia Eagles—fly, Eagles, go! [Verse 2] The Redskins pressed, but we answered back, Kept our hearts steady and stayed on track. No matter the moment, no matter the call, We fought as one and gave it our all. A narrow lead, but a mighty sound, Faith and determination shook the ground. When that last number lit the board, We thanked the Lord for the strength He poured. [Pre-Chorus] When the road got narrow, We held on tight. Grace gave us courage, And courage brought the fight. [Chorus] Hallelujah, we won that one! Twenty-four to twenty-two, the victory’s done! Philadelphia, lift your voice and say: The Eagles flew strong on week one today! Holy Ghost power, let the praises rise, Blessings on the field and joy in our eyes. Hallelujah, let the whole world know: Philadelphia Eagles—fly, Eagles, go! [Bridge] Lead: Who kept us standing? Choir: The Lord kept us standing! Lead: Who gave us strength? Choir: The Lord gave us strength! Lead: What’s the score? Choir: Twenty-four to twenty-two! Lead: Who are we? Choir: Philadelphia! Lead: What do we say? Choir: Fly, Eagles, fly! [Vamp] Fly, Eagles, fly! We praise You as we rise! Fly, Eagles, fly! Victory before our eyes! Green and white, hearts unite, Thank You, Lord, for this winning night! Fly, Eagles, fly! [Final Chorus] Hallelujah, we won that one! Twenty-four to twenty-two, the victory’s done! Philadelphia, lift your voice and say: The Eagles flew strong on week one today! Holy Ghost power, let the praises rise, Blessings on the field and joy in our eyes. Hallelujah, let the whole world know: Philadelphia Eagles—fly, Eagles, go! [Outro] Choir: Fly, Eagles, fly! Lead: Give God the glory! Choir: Fly, Eagles, fly! Lead: Philadelphia victory!
