Little Drops of Water

Little drops of wa­ter

Little grains of sand

Make the migh­ty ocean

And the beau­te­ous land.

And the lit­tle mo­ments

Humble though they be

Make the migh­ty ag­es

Of eter­ni­ty.

Little deeds of kind­ness

Little words of love

Make our earth an Ed­en

Like the Heav­en ab­ove.

So our li­ttle er­rors

Lead the soul away

From the paths of vir­tue

Into sin to stray.

Little seeds of mer­cy

Sown by youth­ful hands

Grow to bless the na­tions

Far in hea­then lands.

Glory then for ev­er

Be to Fa­ther

Son

With the Ho­ly Spir­it

Blessèd Three in One.
