The Reason She Sings

 Sing little song bird, let your heart’s, soul, soar
Over fields of lilacs, bring high praise before the Lord…
Sing little song bird, tell us what it means
To know and understand why your soul sings…
I’ve crossed many rivers and flown above the seas…
I’ve fought foe and fiend, tis a few reasons why I sing…
I’ve lost loved ones and been attacked by things unseen…
But all the while, and through every mile, Jesus has been the reason I sing…
He lifts me high above the burdens and gives me peace through every scheme
He’s given me Joy for the mourning, why He is the reason I sing…
I sing when I’m discouraged, yes, I sing because I’m free…
I sing when some are dying, I sing through everything…
I sing when I am tired and I sing when I can’t sing…
Through it all, Jesus gives my life meaning…
I’ll sing in the morning and I’ll sing at noon…
I’ll be singing when it’s time for me, to leave this dark, world’s, room…
Sing with me little children; sing when your heart is drear…
Sing when life seems lifeless; sing through all your tears…
Sing when you are happy and sing when you’re in fear…
For it’s in the singing you will hear…
God’s love sings back, I’m near…
 
Singing lightens your burdens and opens heaven’s door
Sing, and open up your heart with exuberance, fully restored…
Sing with me little children, sing before the Lord…
Jesus is the reason, I will sing forevermore!
When you hear the little song bird singing you’ll know…Jesus is the reason she sings!

Psalm 104:12 New International Version (NIV) The birds of the sky nest by the waters; they sing among the branches.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
