A Little Sparrow

I am only a little sparrow!
A bird of low degree!
My life is of little value.
But the dear Lord cares for me
He gave me a coat of feathers
'Tis very plain I know:
With never a speck of crimson.
For it was not made for show.
But it keeps me warm in winter,
It shields me from the rain.
Were it bordered with gold and purple
Perhaps it would make me vain

I have no barn or storehouse:
I never sow or reap:
God gives me a sparrow's portion.
But never a seed to keep.
If my meat is sometimes scanty.
Close picking makes it sweet:
I have always enough to keep me.
And life is more than meat.
I know there are many sparrows:
All over the world they're found:
But our heavenly Father knows
When one of us falls to the ground.

Though small, we are never forgotten-
Though weak, we are never afraid.
For we know that the dear Lord keeps
The lives of the creatures He made.
I fly through the thickest forest,
I light on many a spray,
I have no chart or compass,
But I never lose my way.

Meg, your hummingbird opening
And, all your beautiful graphics
Are perfect, for today!

(I can almost hear them buzzing around
As Rufous guards his feeders!)

I hope you have a relaxing and peaceful Lord's Day!

Aw, thank you Meg! I would have posted sooner but I had a mistake somewhere in my commands or a bracket or something....I nearly went crazy trying to find out the mistake. Isn’t it strange how one little tiny thing can keep you looking for 15 minutes? Guess I’m out of practice...LOL!

JC, that is SO touching! Thank you so much for sharing it with us, this Lord's Day!

Dottie West - "His Eye Is On The Sparrow"

(I wanted to find Elvis singing it, but no such luck!)

Wishing you a peaceful, relaxing day! Hope you are feeling better.

I know what you mean, JC! One little ‘<’ missed or added in the wrong place (or like I do - forget the < br >) - and the whole thing is messed up. It is a beautiful post, and I’m glad you found the problem!
