The Excelsior Hymnal ‎#257

257. God’s Little Preachers

1 Ev’ry little birdie
Singing in the tree,
Is God’s little preacher,
Singing unto me.

Refrain:
Trust our heav’nly Father,
Follow in His way,
He will keep you happy,
Singing all the day.

2 Ev’ry pretty flower,
With its smiling face,
Tells me of His goodness,
Tells me of His grace. [Refrain]

3 Ev’ry golden sunbeam,
Falling from above,
As it shines up on me,
Tell me, “God is Love.” [Refrain]
