The Peace

Of Birds

By Colleen WaltersPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read
Anna Golden " Birds"

This is such a beautiful lilting melody, with lyrics that remind us that we can just be. We are spiritual beings with bodies, and our minds are the battlefield of the War of the Worlds, the spiritual world and the natural world clashing over our thoughts and actions.

Peace is found when we listen to the quiet, where the trees whisper sweet nothings and the breeze connects us to the ancient. 💚

"Birds" by Anna Golden

🪶Birds in the air, they don't worry

The sun's never scared that it won't rise

If all of creation depends on your goodness

Why oh why can't I?

Anxiety is such a human thing

But what do the creatures know about you?

They all know you're faithful and you're true

You'll do everything you said you would do

They all know you're lovely and you're just

I know these things but I must

Admit that I'm so human sometimes

Everything you've done for all of creation

You've done it in my life

Anxiety is such a human thing

What do the creatures know about you?

They all know you're faithful and you're true

You'll do everything you said you would do

They all know you're lovely and you're just

I know these things but I must

Admit that I'm so human sometimes

I know I'm so human sometimes

God, I'm just so human sometimes

Everything you've done for all of creation

You've done it in my life

Over and over

Again and again

Oh, you'll do it for me

Oh, do it for me 🪶
