Look at the Birds

Remember well the words that Christ has said:
'Look at the birds, they neither sow nor reap,
Yet by His Hand they daily still are fed' -
Our Father keeps awake while the sparrows sleep.

It pleases God to meet our every need,
As we draw near through prayer and Holy Word.
In time with Him, our trusting hearts are freed,
And faith responds when His command is heard.

We launch in faith, obeying His decree,
And learn how true our God remains, how kind.
Faith does not shift with each calamity,
Nor bend to fleeting feelings of the mind.

Its anchor holds in Scripture’s firm accord,
The inner voice - stirring – ‘Speak Lord’.
