His Eyes Are On the Sparrow

I am Your sparrow.

Can you hold me just a little longer?

I don't know how to pick up the pieces to this puzzle.

Will you keep Your eyes on me just a bit longer?

I don't think that I know how to fly. Not anymore.

I think that I used to. I think that I used to know how to live.

Now I just stumble and hurt and fall so often.

Please teach me what you're trying to teach me.

Please help me be a good student. Help this student learn what you are trying to teach.

Lord, my wings are broken. Can they ever be mended?

I sit, protected in Your hand. Can I stay here a while? Is there ever a time, that I'll have to leave?

Could You hold me through this storm?

Are there any other sparrows out there, that could come and sit here with me so that I wouldn't be so alone?

I'm so alone.

I'm so broken.

Let me sit here and be still.
