我只是小小的麻雀
　
我只是小小的麻雀
卑微低贱的飞鸟；
身价不值几钱，
但蒙亲爱的主关照。

我无谷仓也无粮库，
既不耕种也不采收；
神却赐我麻雀的口粮，
不吝一粒管够。

我知道有许多的麻雀，
世上随处都可看到；
但我们哪一只落了地，
天父祂全都知晓。

虽然渺小，我们从未被忘记；
虽然软弱，我们从不忧惧；
因为我们知道亲爱的主
守护祂所造的万物。

我飞越重重的密林，
我掠过朵朵细浪；
没有海图，也没有指南针，
我却从未迷失方向。

我在黄昏时安然收翅，
无论身在何方；
我不会受丝毫的伤害，
因为天父一直守望。

我只是小小的麻雀，
卑微低贱的飞鸟；
但我知道天父爱我，
你的信心比我们还小？

I am only tiny sparrow,
A bird of low degree;
My life is of little value,
But the dear Lord cares for me.

I have no barn nor storehouse,
I neither sow nor reap;
God gives me a sparrow’s portion,
But never a seed to keep.

I know there are many sparrows;
All over the world they are found;
But our heavenly Father knoweth
When one of us falls to the ground.

Though small, we are never forgotten;
Though weak, we are never afraid;
For we know the dear Lord keepeth
The life of the creatures he made.

I fly through the thickest forest,
I light on many a spray;
I have no chart nor compass,
But I never lose my way.

And I fold my wing at twilight
Wherever I happen to be;
For the Father is always watching,
And no harm will come to me.

I am only a little sparrow,
A bird of low degree,
But I know the Father loves me;
Have you less faith than we?”
