God make my life a little light
Within the world to glow;
A little flame that burneth bright,
Wherever I may go.
God make my life a little flower
That giveth joy to all,
Content to bloom in native bower,
Although the place be small.
God make my life a little song
That comforteth the sad.
That helpeth others to be strong,
And makes the singer glad.
God make my life a little staff,
Whereon the weak may rest:
That so what health and strength I have
May serve my neighbours best.
God make my life a little hymn
O tenderness and praise:
Of faith—that never waxeth dim,
In all His wondrous ways.
