1 Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean,
And the beauteous land.

2 Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Make our earth an Eden,
Like the heaven above.

3 Little seeds of mercy,
Sown by youthful hands,
Grow to bless the nations,
Far in heathen lands.

4 And the little moments,
Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
Of eternity.

5 So our little errors
Lead the soul away
From the paths of virtue,
Oft in sin to stray.
