The Morning Stars Sang Together ‎#59

59. Fear not! Fear not!

1 Yea, fear not, fear not, little ones;
There is in heaven an eye
That looks with yearning fondness down
On all the paths ye try.

2 'Tis he who guides the sparrow's wing,
And guards her little brood;
Who hears the ravens when they cry,
And gives them all their food.

3 'Tis he who clothes the fields with flowers,
And pours the light abroad;
'Tis He who numbers all your hours,
Your Father and your God.

4 Ye are chosen of His love,
His most peculiar care;
And will he guide the fluttering dove,
And not regard your prayer?

5 Then fear not, fear not, little ones,
There is in heaven an eye
That looks with yearning fondness down
On all the paths ye try.
