These Present Sufferings

I'm still revising this one; bear with me. _____________________________ See the sparrow fall from the sky, As the flocks graze in the feilds. The shepherd watches the sparrow, On green pastures over the hills. If the shepherd watches the sparrow, Watches he not o'er his sheep? As a father watches his children, The shepherd his flocks will keep. See the shepherd pick up the sparrow; Gently cradles it in his arm. And the shepherd carries the sparrow; Carries it in his heart. If the shepher carries the sparrow, Carries he not his sheep? As a father carries his children, The shepherd his flocks will keep. See the shepherd care for the sparrow; Carefully mend its broken wings. And his heart bleeds for his young one, As softly his song he sings. If the shepherd cares for the sparrow, Cares he not more for his sheep? As a father cares for his children, The shepherd his flocks will keep. See the shepherd, he loves the sparrow; His compassion will never be swayed. His devotion is alway...

Ecclesiastes 12:1a "Remember your Creator in the days of your youth..." Remember your God O young one Remember Him while you are strong Remember your God O young one While your days are peaceful and long Remember your God O young one Remember Him in the fight Remember your God O young one When you leave and take your flight Remember your God O young one Remember Him while you are home Remember your God O young one In the days you long to roam Remember your God O young one Remember Him in life's joys Remember your God O young one In the midst of hell's dark ploys Remember your God O young one Remember Him in your fear Remember your God O young one For He is always near Remember your God O young one Remember him in your youth Remember your God O young one For he remembers you ~Charli Mills June 1st 2007
