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.
