1 I'll hie me down to yonder bank, A little raindrop said, And try to cheer that lonely flow'r And cool its mossy bed; Perhaps the breeze will chide me, Because I am so small, But surely I must do my best, For God has work for all. 2 I may not linger, said the brook, But ripple on my way, And help the rills and rivers all To make the ocean spray. And I must haste to labor, Replied the busy bee, The summer 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 or small Let each with joy remember this, The Lord has work for all.
