♬ ”His Eye Is on the Sparrow” - Finding God in the Natural Flow of Life and Death

The hymn "His Eye Is on the Sparrow" written by Civilla D. Martin has recently been added to the LDS hymnals. This podcast uses the hymn as a reflection on life’s natural cycle, drawing inspiration from the experiences of the author of the text and the origins of the hymn. By examining the life cycle of a sparrow—from birth to death—as a metaphor for our own lives, it explores the hymn with a new interpretation, in the context of a naturalistic view of God. The podcast highlights how faith, viewed through the lens of nature’s processes, encourages finding solace and purpose within the natural rhythms that shape existence.
