“Overheard in an Orchard” by Elizabeth Cheney
Said the robin to the sparrow,
“I would really like to know
Why those anxious human beings
rush around and worry so.”
Said the sparrow to the robin,
“Friend, I think that it must be
That they have no Heavenly Father
such as cares for you and me.”
Psalm 46:10 KJV – “Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
