"Consider the Lilies"
Consider the lilies
How they grow
How splendidly your Father clothes them.
Consider the lilies
They are gone in a day
You know you mean so much more to Him.
Seek ye first
The kingdom of God and His righteousness
And all of these things
Will be added
Will be added to you
You know you mean so much more to Him.
Are you heavy laden?
Weighted down by care?
You know your Father knows your every need
Before you even say one prayer.
Look at the birds of the air
They neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns
Look at the birds,
Your Father feeds them
You know you mean so much more to Him

Jim, I appreciate your responding and all the typing you did for me, but.....I don't believe this is the same song. It goes something like this:
Consider The Lillies
They don't toil or snare....
Chorus
We have a heavenly Father Up Above.....
He really cares when your heart is bowed low
Consider The Lillies and then you will know.
Again thanks for your attempt to help....Jon

Jon, I didn't type that . It would take me a week to do that! Anyway, I think I found what you want.
Consider The Lilies
Written by: Joel Hemphill
Verse I
Consider the lilies they don’t toil nor spin
And there’s not a king with more splendor than them
Consider the sparrow they don’t plant or sow
But they’re fed by the Master who watches them grow
Chorus
We have a Heavenly Father above
With eyes full of mercy
And a heart full of love
He really cares when
Your head is bowed low
Consider the lilies and then you will know
Verse II
Now may I introduce you to this friend of mine
Who hangs out the stars and tells the sun when to shine
And kisses the flowers each morning with dew
But He’s not too busy to care about you

Has anyone been able to figure out the intro to "Consider the Lilies"?
If so how about tabbing it out. I don’t know who was the steel player for the Hemphill’s, but he was fantastic on that intro!
I have been asked to play the intro and I just goofed it up. It would be nice to get some tab so I can do it right.
Crash and burn?? Ya, I do it live all the time.
Thanks....

Very close, Tony. Doyle Grisham was the steel player on this song. Great song! I have had to kick it off a zillion times, live and in the studio. |
