LITTLE DEEDS
Just a little deed, so small
Hardly is it seen at all;
Yet, for One who holds us dear,
Feeling thus His presence near,
Never deed in vain is done,
All are counted, one by one.
Hardly is it seen at all;
Yet, for One who holds us dear,
Feeling thus His presence near,
Never deed in vain is done,
All are counted, one by one.
Just a little deed may be
Blessèd in its ministry,
Give another needed cheer,
Courage grant to those who fear;
"Cups of water" in His name,
Better far than works of fame.

When with love our hearts o'erflow,
Little deeds are seeds we sow,
Bearing fruit abundant, sweet,
For the Master's vineyard meet;
If we in the Vine abide,
All we do is sanctified.
