1. If in the wider field of life There is no place for you, If abler hands perform the work You would so gladly do, You may not sit in idleness And wait for future plan; But in the place you occupy, Just do the best you can. Chorus: Just do the best you can, Just do the best you can; And God will bless the labor, If you do the best you can. 2. If we have but the "widow's mite" To help the cause we love, We can invoke, thro' providence, A God-speed from above, With willing heart and busy hand, We cannot surely fail To do our part of some good work, That will some need avail. [Chorus] 3. Scorn not to do the smallest things That we are wont to find, Nor yet to fill the humblest niche, Or little wants to mind. The smallest acts meet rich return, Performed with right accord; Not to the lowest lights that burn Is due the least reward. [Chorus] | Carols of Hope: a compilation of select sacred songs for use in Sunday schools, praise and young people's services #183 (1906) |
