Little Things
by Ebenezer Cobham Brewer

Little drops of water,
⁠Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
⁠And the pleasant land.

Thus the little minutes,
⁠Humble though they be,
Make the mighty ages
⁠Of eternity.

  1. The last two stanzas:

    So our little errors
    Lead the soul away
    From the path of virtue
    Far in sin to stray.

    Little deeds of kindness
    Little words of love
    Help to make earth happy
    Like the heaven above.
