Little drops of water

Author: Mrs. J. A. Carney, 1823-; Dr. E. C. Brewer, 1810-1897 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #607 (1917) Topics: Little Things; Little Things Lyrics: 1 Little drops of water Little grains of sand, Make the mighty ocean And the beauteous land. 2 And the little moments, Humble though they be, Make the mighty ages Of eternity. 3 Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Make our earth an Eden Like the heaven above. 4 So our little errors Lead the soul away From the paths of virtue Into sin to stray. 5 Little seeds of mercy, Sown by youthful hands Grow to bless the nations Far in heathen lands.

One Thing needful

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: Laudes Domini #278 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: Why will ye waste on trifling cares Lyrics: 1 Why will ye waste on trifling cares That life which God's compassion spares? While, in the various range of thought, The one thing needful is forgot? 2 Shall God invite you from above? Shall Jesus urge his dying love? Shall troubled conscience give you pain? And all these pleas unite in vain? 3 Not so your eyes will always view Those objects which you now pursue; Not so will heaven and hell appear, When death's decisive hour is near. 4 Almighty God! thy grace impart; Fix deep conviction on each heart: Nor let us waste on trifling cares That life which thy compassion spares.

Nature's King

Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: Laudes Domini #64 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: O give thanks to Him who made Lyrics: 1 Oh, give thanks to him who made Morning light and evening shade; Source and giver of all good, Nightly sleep and daily food; Quickener of our wearied powers; Guard of our unconscious hours. 2 Oh, give thanks to nature's King, Who made every breathing thing: His, our warm and sentient frame, His, the mind's immortal flame. Oh, how close the ties that bind Spirits to the Eternal Mind! 3 Oh, give thanks with heart and lip, For we are his workmanship; And all creatures are his care: Not a bird that cleaves the air Falls unnoticed; but who can Speak the Father's love to man? 4 Oh, give thanks to him who came In a mortal, suffering frame Temple of the Deity Came, for rebel man to die; In the path himself hath trod, Leading back his saints to God.

Each day's Duties

Author: John Keble Hymnal: Laudes Domini #9 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: New every morning is the love Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove; Through sleep and darkness safely brought, Restored to life, and power, and thought. 2 New mercies, each returning day, Hover around us while we pray; New perils past, new sins forgiven, New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If, on our daily course, our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still, of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we need to ask, Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God. 5 Only, O Lord! in thy dear love Fit us for perfect rest above; And help us this and every day, To live more nearly as we pray.

Providence

Author: Helen M. Williams Hymnal: Laudes Domini #120 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: While thee I seek, protecting Power! Lyrics: 1 And while I seek, protecting Power! Be my vain wishes stilled; And may this consecrated hour With better hopes be filled; Thy love the power of thought bestowed; To thee my thoughts would soar: Thy mercy o'er my life has flowed; That mercy I adore. 2 In each event of life how clear Thy ruling hand I see! Each blessing to my soul more dear Because conferred by thee. In every joy that crowns my days, In every pain I bear, My heart shall find delight in praise Or seek relief in prayer. 3 When gladness wings my favored hour, Thy love my thoughts shall fill; Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower, My soul shall meet thy will. My lifted eye, without a tear, The gathering storm shall see; My steadfast heart shall know no fear; That heart will rest on thee. Languages: English Tune Title: BRATTLE STREET

Christ is God

Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #179 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: Mighty God! while angels bless thee Lyrics: 1 Mighty God! while angels bless thee, May a mortal lisp thy name? Lord of men, as well as angels! Thou art every creature's theme: Lord of every land and nation Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation Be thy just and awful praise. 2 For the grandeur of thy nature, Grand, beyond a seraph's thought; For the wonders of creation, Works with skill and kindness wrought; For thy providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow; Blessed be thy gentle reign. 3 For thy rich, thy free redemption, Bright, though vailed in darkness long, Thought is poor, and poor expression; Who can sing that wondrous song? Brightness of thy Father's glory! Shall thy praise unuttered lie? Break, my tongue! such guilty silence, Sing the Lord who came to die: 4 From the highest throne of glory, To the cross of deepest woe, Came to ransom guilty captives! Flow, my praise! for ever flow: Re-ascend, immortal Saviour! Leave thy footstool, take thy throne; Thence return and reign for ever; Be the kingdom all thine own!

Minute fidelity

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #468 (1890) Topics: Little Things; Little Things First Line: Scorn not the slightest word or deed Lyrics: 1 Scorn not the slightest word or deed, Nor deem it void of power; There's fruit in each wind-wafted seed, That waits its natal hour. 2 A whispered word may touch the heart, And call it back to life; A look of love bid sin depart, And still unholy strife. 3 No act falls fruitless; none can tell How vast its power may be, Nor what results infolded dwell Within it silently. 4 Work on, despair not, bring thy mite, Nor care how small it be; God is with all that serve the right, The holy, true, and free.
