I’m just a little flower

lyricist: Adapted
Composer: Albert Knoch

I’m just a little flower

With open face;

I’m fully turned to God

Receiving grace.

I don’t know how to try—

This is my case—

I’m just a lily trusting God.

There’s nothing on this earth

That I desire.

There’s no experience

That I require.

I only want one thing—

(Satan’s a liar!)

To be a lily trusting God.

If when I trust in God

I’m put to shame;

If when I walk with God

I come out lame;

These things don’t bother me;

I’m not to blame—

Since I’m a lily trusting God.

With all your worrying

To clothe yourself;

So many lies you’ve told

To gather wealth;

And though you’ve gotten rich

You’ve lost your health—

Just be a lily trusting God.

It seems you know so much

But yet you fall;

And though you talk so much

Yet you won’t call;

So what’s the use of it

For after all—

Just be a lily trusting God.

So please don’t bother me

With all your fears;

You strive and try so hard

With sweat and tears.

Have faith in Jesus Christ—

He’s always near!

Just be a lily trusting God.

Yes

please don’t bother me

I’m growing fine.

Oh please don’t share with me

What’s on your mind.

I may not know so much

But still I shine.

For I’m a lily trusting God.

And please don’t bother me

With all your cares;

Don’t make me listen to

Your begging prayers;

Our God is very great—

He really cares!

Just be a lily trusting God.

It seems that I don’t care

So much for you;

But if you knew my heart

I really do;

Yet lilies don’t know how

To fret and stew—

I’m just a lily—How ’bout you?
