I Am But a Sparrow is a gentle praise and worship album rooted in humility, hope, and trust. Drawing inspiration from scripture, Advent reflection, and quiet moments of faith, these songs explore what it means to follow rather than strive, to listen rather than lead, and to rest in God’s mercy even when answers feel distant.

Spanning themes of light in darkness, surrender, peace on earth, and steadfast love, the album blends contemporary Christian and gospel influences with an intimate, prayerful tone. From songs of waiting and wonder to declarations of gratitude and commitment, each track is offered as an honest act of worship — imperfect, heartfelt, and sincere.

This is music for reflection, for worship at home or in community, and for anyone walking a faith journey marked by both questions and trust. Like the sparrow, these songs rest not in strength or certainty, but in grace.
