Worry

(Luke 12:15,22,23)
That wretched thing called worry
goes round and round and round
inside my head, – I’m sorry
mankind no cure has found;
but Someone very special
can show its source, and say,
‘Don’t worry, pardoned sinner,
trust me in all today.’

He’s powerful and he’s gracious;
I’m often in a mess.
He cares, – his sheep are precious,
despite their foolishness.
Though our mistakes cause fretting,
he’ll still command, and say,
‘Don’t worry, pardoned sinner,
trust me in all today.’

Who can control tomorrow?
Old Worry wants to rule –
myself relieve my sorrow –
an independent fool!
King Jesus reigns and loves me,
I’m glad to hear him say,
‘Don’t worry, pardoned sinner,
trust me in all today.’

For life is more than eating,
and things we now possess.
I need, far more than clothing,
real peace and righteousness.
My treasure is in heaven,
with Jesus, – hear him say,
‘Don’t worry, pardoned sinner,
trust me in all today.’
