Lyrics:
Consider the lilies of the field,
How they grow, how they grow.
Consider the birds in the sky,
How they fly, how they fly.

He clothes the lilies of the field.
He feeds the birds in the sky.
And He will feed those who trust Him
And guide them with His eye.

Consider the sheep of His fold,
How they follow where He leads.
Tho' the path may wind across the mountains,
He knows the meadows where they feed.

He clothes the lilies of the field.
He feeds the birds in the sky.
And He will feed those who trust Him
And guide them with His eye.

Consider the sweet tender children
Who must suffer on this earth.
The pains of all of them He carried
From the day of His birth.

He clothes the lilies of the field,
He feeds the lambs of His fold,
And He will heal those who trust Him,
And make their hearts as gold.

He clothes the lilies of the field,
He feeds the lambs of His fold,
And He will heal those who trust Him,
And make their hearts as gold.

I used to run a Nursing home. Many sweet spirits that had dementia showed such a clear recognition of this and many other sacred hymns. We knew them long before we came to earth amd we will once again communicate in heaven through song and music. It is eternal proof we are ALL Children of the Most High God.

Nobody else on Earth can top the Mormon tabernacle choir for excellence and beauty. I mean it they are the best.

[homewardbound]

This song saved me at one of the lowest points in my life - my family all know this is "My Song" - Thank you 🙏

[spencerhon]

Love the reminder of how God takes care of all the little things. If He takes care of such a small and insignificant thing (in our eyes) as a Lilly, how much more do you think He cares for us, His children?

"Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God."

[ellenful]

This song was given to me by angels, who were wiping away my tears as I was coming to grips with my mother's passing.
When I hear it I am comforted even as tears stream down my face. I know she is with God. I love you, Mom!!!

[kengibson]

"And He will heal those who trust Him,
And make their hearts as gold"

[donnabrown]

I love this song. This is the first time I heard it. I am not Mormon, but I love the music. I belong to the Episcopal Church. The hymns sound very familiar. I like to think I will see my parents in heaven. My father passed away in 2011 at 87 and my mother in 2016 at 88. I have 3 sons and 2 grandsons. Family is important.

[skottywayne]

My mother has Dementia.  She can't remember very much at all....but when I play this song and we watch the video....she remembers all the words.  These are the greatest moments of my life and I will treasure them forever!

[coraluz]

I'm not sure how you can listen to this and not shed some tears. It is absolutely beautiful and touches your heart so much.

[amcd]

This song has always spoken to my heart. Reminds me of how aware our Father in Heaven is of us and everything will turn out okay even when my world is falling apart. Thank you, Father for this beautiful reminder of your all encompassing love and mercy towards us.

[russtruman]

Such a beautiful song. My father in law had this song at his funeral. Everytime I here it reminds me of him and the great life that he lived. It always brings peace to my soul. I know that our Father in Heaven lives and loves us all

This was my Mom’s favorite song. Sadly she passed away a couple years ago. I love this song because I feel like she’s near when I hear it.

[kakieocansey]

This song always encourages me to trust Heavenly Father no matter how tough life will be. always hope if we don't give up

[rothpeterson]

I love this Easter hymn because it's telling us that Jesus knows us all by name and love's us all equally and unconditionally. Perfect, pure love. Eternal love.

[greengirl]

This song makes me teary and pondering the goodness of God to me inspite of what I have done in my life.
