Beautiful Birds
Beautiful birds, in heaven's bright blue,
Flying up and down and through,
Beautiful birds that sweetly sing,
And make the air with music ring.
Beautiful songs the birds do sing,
Praises to their Heavenly King;
Always so happy, light, and free,
As they swing on bush and tree.
God watches even the sparrow fall;
Will he, then, not watch us all?
Trust in him, then, like birds that sing
Praises to God, their Heavenly King.
