There was once a distracted writer and a little bird…
The little bird who sparked this reflection did not fly away. The bird remained with me, in my thoughts, for months and days until I took pen to paper and wrote this hymn for which my dear, talented, incredibly generous friend, Mireille Wassef, composed the most beautiful melody. The brilliant Magy Wassef arranged and edited it. The angelic voices from my church choir sang it. And CYC produced it under the coordination of another dear friend, whom I love, Ireini Ghobri!
Only then did the bird fly away 🙂
I hope that the Little Bird will inspire young and old alike to always trust our Lord; He wants what is Best for us!
Hope you enjoy it!
Lyrics
©mireille mishriky, author
I watched the bird that was watching me
But then It flew back up to her tree
Only to return with great speed
Wanting to cross my window indeed
Chorus
Stop little bird!
The glass is protecting you
From dangers that you cannot see
Our Lord is saving you and me
The bird flew around in circles once more
Aimed for my window; that was her goal
Can’t she see the fan behind my chair?
It will break her wings without a care!
Chorus
Stop little bird!
The glass is protecting you
From dangers that you cannot see
Our Lord is saving you and me
When we can’t get what we want the most
We must stop and thank the Lord of Hosts
His wisdom and love we might not understand
But all He wants is to hold our hands
Chorus
Stop little bird!
The glass is protecting you
From dangers that you cannot see
Our Lord is saving you and me
In Christ,
Mireille
