His Eye is on the Sparrow

Why do you twitter so?
What is it that you say
As you chatter to each other, 
All throughout the day?

Do you sing for Jesus?
Did He give your song,
To delight in your enjoyment,
That to Him belongs?

None of you can topple
Without His seeing eye.
He watches every one that falls,
So gently, from the sky.

Just today is all you know.
To fret is not your style.
But, though you soar upon the heights,
Your life is so fragile.

You take no worries for the morrow.
You do not sow or reap.
You build no barns to store your seed.
For, there is none to keep.

Your plumes just bloom, without a fuss.
You only need to preen,
With no thought to fret for more.
For, God knows all you need.

  Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life,
 what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body,
 what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 
  Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap,
 nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them.
 Are ye not much better than they? 
 ~ Matthew 6:25-26 KJV ~
