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. Languages: English

1810 - 1876 Person Name: Samuel S. Wesley Topics: Little Things Composer of "AURELIA" in The Endeavor Hymnal Samuel Sebastian Wesley (b. London, England, 1810; d. Gloucester, England, 1876) was an English organist and composer. The grandson of Charles Wesley, he was born in London, and sang in the choir of the Chapel Royal as a boy. He learned composition and organ from his father, Samuel, completed a doctorate in music at Oxford, and composed for piano, organ, and choir. He was organist at Hereford Cathedral (1832-1835), Exeter Cathedral (1835-1842), Leeds Parish Church (1842-1849), Winchester Cathedral (1849-1865), and Gloucester Cathedral (1865-1876). Wesley strove to improve the standards of church music and the status of church musicians; his observations and plans for reform were published as A Few Words on Cathedral Music and the Music System of the Church (1849). He was the musical editor of Charles Kemble's A Selection of Psalms and Hymns (1864) and of the Wellburn Appendix of Original Hymns and Tunes (1875) but is best known as the compiler of The European Psalmist (1872), in which some 130 of the 733 hymn tunes were written by him.
