Consider The Lilies

Matthew 6:28-29 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 

[29] And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.


Don’t even think about what you wear. The Lord knows your needs. 


Notice the beautiful lilies, dressed with beauty far exceeding that of the glory of King Solomon.


Consider The Lilies

Consider the lilies, —  They don’t toil or spin, —  And there’s not a king with more splendor than them.   —    Consider the sparrow,   —    They don’t plant or sow,  —    But they’re fed by the master   —    Who watches them grow.


CHORUS:

We have a heavenly father above  —  With eyes full of mercy  —   And a heart full of love. —  He really cares when your head is bowed low. —    Consider the lilies   —    And then you will know.


May I introduce you   —    To this friend of mine,   —    Who hangs out the stars   —    And tells the sun when to shine. —  He kisses the flowers  each morning with dew.   —    But He’s not too busy   —    To care about you.
