What will I eat? The cupboard is bare,

I stand at the fridge, look and just stare.

My tummy is grumbling desperate for food

I must eat and drink to calm this bad mood.

Oh no! Oh dear! What will I do?

I’ve nothing to wear I must buy something new.

Wear the right clothes, look super cool

Make sure it fits, those are the rules.

Where will I go? What will I do?

Too many choices, I haven’t a clue!

What path do I take, to the left or the right,

I worry so much that I don’t sleep at night.

I stress, I fear, I worry and fret,

I need to trust God, who hasn’t failed me yet!

Stop for a moment, use your spectacular brain

Jesus our Saviour has helped us again!

“Do not worry”, He said, about your life

And what you eat with your fork and your knife.

“Isn’t there more things important to care

than what you will eat and what you will wear?”

“Look at the birds that fly up so high,

they don’t keep food there way up in the sky.

Fed each day by our Father above

Aren’t you worth more than a sparrow or dove?”

If you worry, does your life gain even a day?

you don’t need to worry, there’s a much better way

Jesus makes sense, of course that you know,

Trust Him each day and in hope you’ll grow.

Why do you worry about your clothes,

just look, see how the wildflower grows!

Not even a king was dressed this good

why do you worry more than you should?”
