Part 1 — LITTLE THINGS
Reading edition
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 path of virtue, Far in sin to stray.
Little deeds of kindness, Little words of love, Help to make earth happy Like the heaven above.
Julia Fletcher Carney [1823-1908]
