We are but little children weak

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 83 hymnals Topics: Action Lyrics: 1 We are but little children weak, Nor born in any high estate; What can we do for Jesus' sake, Who is so high, and good, and great? 2 O, day by day each Christian child Has much to do, without, within; A death to die for Jesus' sake, A weary war to wage with sin. 3 When deep within our swelling hearts The thoughts of pride and anger rise, When bitter words are on our tongues, And tears of passion in our eyes; 4 Then we may stay the angry blow, Then we may check the hasty word, Give gentle answers back again, And fight a battle for our Lord. 5 There's not a child so small and weak But has his little cross to take, His little work of love and praise That he may do for Jesus' sake. Amen. Used With Tune: ALSTONE

Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, for the living of these days, for the living of these days. 3 Cure thy children's warring madness; bend our pride to thy control; shame our wanton selfish gladness, rich in goods and poor in soul. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, make thy peace our daily goal, make thy peace our daily goal. 4 Fill us with a living vision, heal our wounds hat we may be bound as one beyond division in the struggle to be free. Grant us wisdom, grant us courage, ears to hear and eyes to see, ears to hear and eyes to see. Used With Tune: CWM RHONDDA
