LITTLE THINGS by JULIA A. FLETCHER CARNEY

First Line: LITTLE DROPS OF WATER
Last Line: LIKE THE HEAVEN ABOVE.
Subject(s): SIMPLICITY;
Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
And the pleasant land.

So the little moments,
Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
Of eternity.

So our little errors
Lead the soul away,
From the paths of virtue
Into sin to stray.

Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Help to make our earth happy
Like the heaven above.
