A little sparrow cannot fall Unnoticed, Lord, by Thee; And though I am so young and small, Thou dost take care of me. Teach me to do whate’er is right, And when I sin, forgive; And make it still my chief delight To love Thee while I live. —Jane Taylor Contents Introduction: God Has a Message . . . for You!
