God Make My Life A Little Light

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 neighbors best.

God make my life a little hymn

Of tenderness and praise,

Of faith, that never waxeth dim,

In all His wondrous ways.
