Why Worry

Why worry your life away when you can pray It was a revelation when I heard that one day I use to worry and end up with sleepless nights, I finally woke up, and smell the roses and realize I was losing the fight. I worry about my finances, family, and future, Not understanding it’s not my part to play. Then my heavenly father made a promise to me That he will take care of my worries every day. But the one and only thing I was asked to do And do it with all my might. Cast all my cares Burdens, and fears, then trust him to see Me through. Life is too precious it’s a free gift from God Why worry but live life to the full. Don’t worry over matters, that you and I can’t change, It’s not worth it in the long run, to be all filled with rage. I finally decided through thick, and thin Though I may worry for a short moment, Christ still lives within. I quickly come to My senses and cast down negative thoughts, I’m still in a human body, but the peace of Mind Christ Jesus wrought. Don’t worry about a thing because every little thing Will be all right. If our heavenly father looks after the birds Of the field. He’s longing, and waiting to take of me and you.
