2. Little Things

1 Little feet were made to walk,
Blessed Lord, for Thee;
Little tongues were made to talk,
Little eyes to see.

Refrain:
Hear my little song today,
Hear me, Jesus, while I pray;
Jesus, take my little heart,
Make it good and true;
Tell me how to do my part,
Just as I should do.

2 Little hearts were made to beat,
Long as we shall live;
Little voices, soft and sweet,
Little songs to give. [Refrain]

3 Jesus, take my little heart,
Make it good and true;
Teach me something good today
I may understand. [Refrain]
