A Fallen Sparrow
by Colan Hiatt I saw it there beside the road The lifeless form of a little bird I knew not the cause of it's demise Or just when, - - it occurred The first thing that came to my mind Were words that Jesus did declare Each one that fell, He knew about Of every detail, - God is aware I marvel at the contrast He used To depict how much He cares The magnitude of love He ascribed On our heads, He counts every hair To the one who is wayward and alone And feels that no one cares He extends, outstretched arms Your heavy burden, He seeks to share "Ye are valued more than many sparrows" And He is standing outside the door Simple, - sincere childlike faith Will give acceptance, to all who implore The magnitude of unbounded love Was depicted by a little bird It's a message He would have us hear The greatest love story, ever heard Colan L Hiatt = 11-18-16 All Rights Reserved Article Source: http://www.faithwriters.com |
