"More Than Sparrows" | A Soulful Gospel Song for Anxiety & Peace

Welcome to "More Than Sparrows," an original gospel soul song designed to bring peace to anxious hearts. If you are struggling with worry, insomnia, or feeling overwhelmed, this song is a reminder of how deeply you are loved by God.

ABOUT THE SONG AND LYRICS This track blends old-school gospel, slow blues, and soul to create an authentic cry of the heart. The lyrics take the listener on a journey from late-night anxiety to confident trust.

Verse 1 describes the very real human experience of "staring at the ceiling" at 2 AM, when our minds race with burdens. The Chorus answers that fear by pointing to nature, just as Jesus did. It reminds us that if God pays attention to the small sparrows and clothes the wildflowers in beauty, He will surely take care of us. The song concludes with a declaration of worth: you are "more than sparrows" to Him.

BIBLICAL INSPIRATION The lyrics are directly inspired by the words of Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount and other teachings on trust:

Matthew 6:26 "Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?"

Matthew 6:28-30 "Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin... Now if God so clothes the grass of the field... will He not much more clothe you?"

Matthew 10:29-31 "Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will... Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows."

LYRICS [Verse 1] I've been staring at the ceiling, Lord, since half past two Trying to carry heavy burdens that belong to You My mind is racing like a train that's gone off the track Worried 'bout the future and looking at the past But then I hear a whisper, cutting through the noise Telling me to listen to my Father's voice.

[Chorus] If You watch the birds of the air And You give them food to eat If You paint the lilies of the field With a beauty bright and sweet Then I know, I know, I know You're gonna take good care of me I am loved, I am loved More than what my eyes can see.

[Verse 2] I read about King Solomon in all his gold and glory But even he couldn't dress like the flowers in Your story They don't toil, they don't spin, they don't work all day Yet You clothe them like royalty in every single way. So why is my faith so little? Why is my heart so scared? When I'm the child You love, and my soul has been spared.

[Bridge] You said I'm worth more than many sparrows You said I shouldn't worry 'bout tomorrow You hold the world in Your gentle hands And You've got me in Your master plan! I'm casting my cares! I'm leaving them there! At Your feet, Lord! At Your feet!
