This song addresses my request to Jesus regarding my suffering and my imagined response as I believe He would give it.
. receive all glory, honor, and praise!
Story behind the song
I wrote the music to this first, which is unusual for me, then I began thinking of my situation and how it fits in to the Big Picture. How would He respond to my question, "Why?" I think I know.

WORRIES FOR WINGS by Jeff Leslie 7/21/02
One day I thought I had everything
Then at once it was taken away
When I cried on my knees, Tell me why, Jesus, please.
These were the words He would say
Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings
Somewhere there lies a great treasure
But its not made to see at this time
By believing the promise He made me that day
I feel like its already mine
Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings
What in the world could be better
Than life with the heavenly King?
Keep your head and your heart in the heavens
Keep your faith and your eyes upon Me
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings
Then one day you will see what your faithfulness brings
When you trade all your worries for wings
