Mustard Seed

from Worship Songs (1999) by James Hersch

/

lyrics

When I tell my little girl to wish upon a star
And I tell my little boy where the angels are
They don’t give it a second thought
My word is all they need
Their faith is like a little mustard seed

When I close my busy door, take the time to pray
Try to open up my heart, roll the world away
Sometimes I just sit there still
Without the words to say
But I believe that God hears anyway

All the fairy tales and stories
That a child believes
One by one they get tenderly hung
In childhood memories
But there’s a promise deep in me
I pray I won’t outgrow
Jesus loves me still
This I know

Now I lay them down to sleep and watch the full moon rise
I’ve got worries, I’ve got fears, I’ve got water in my eyes
So much is out of my control
So much uncertainty
Oh let the rain fall down
Let the hard times feed
Blessings on my little mustard seed
