WHAT THE LITTLE THINGS SAID. 
1. “I’ll hie me down to yon-der bank,” A lit - tie rain-drop said, “And 
2. “I may not lin-ger,” said the brook,“But rip-pie on my way, And 
try to cheer that lone - ly flow’r, And cool its moss - y bed : Per - 
help the rills andriv-ers all To make the o-cean spray“And 
haps the breeze will chide me, Be - cause I am so small; But, 
I must haste to la - bor,” B.e - plied the bus - y bee, “ The 
sure - ly, I must do my best, For God has work for all.” 
Sum-mer days are long and bright,And God has work for me.” 
3. 
If little things that God has made 
Are useful in their kind, 
Oh ! let us learn a simple truth, 
And bear it in our mind : 
That every child can praise Him, 
However weak and small; 
Let each with joy remember this,— 
The Lord has work for all.
