Animals of the Bible

In ancient tales of faith and lore
Where stories of old saints are stored
Walks the mighty lion, king of beasts
And the humble donkey, carrying peace

From the eagle's flight to the serpent's coil
The animals of the Bible, on sacred soil
Each one a symbol, each with a role
In the stories of the ages, they all unfold

The dove of peace, the raven's call
The patient ox, working through it all
The sparrow sings, the wolf does prowl
The mighty whale and the timid fowl

From the eagle's flight to the serpent's coil
The animals of the Bible, on sacred soil
Each one a symbol, each with a role
In the stories of the ages, they all unfold

There's the bear's might, the ant's small stride
The serpent's cunning, where secrets hide
The camel's endurance, the sheep's pure grace
Each one finds a special place

The leviathan in the ocean deep
The gentle lamb, while shepherds sleep
The locusts swarm, the frogs descend
Each in the tales the scriptures send

From the eagle's flight to the serpent's coil
The animals of the Bible, on sacred soil
Each one a symbol, each with a role
In the stories of the ages, they all unfold

So many creatures, great and small
In the sacred texts, they heed the call
From the lion's roar to the raven's caw
The animals of the Bible, we stand in awe

In God's power, they sprang to life anew
Each with a purpose, each vision in view
