A Little Bit of Love

Author: E. O. E. Hymnal: The New Praiseworthy #107 (1916) First Line: Do you know the world is dying Refrain First Line: For a little bit of love Lyrics: 1 Do you know the world is dying For a little bit of love? Ev'rywhere we hear the sighing For a little bit of love; For the love that rights a wrong, Fills the heart with hope and song; They have waited, oh, so long, For a little bit of love. For a little bit of love, For a little bit of love. They have waited, oh, so long, For a little bit of love. 2 From the poor of ev'ry city, For a little bit of love, Hands are reaching out in pity For a little bit of love; Some have burdens hard to bear, Some have sorrows we should share; Shall they falter and despair For a little bit of love? For a little bit of love, For a little bit of love. Shall they falter and despair For a little bit of love? 3 Down before their idols falling, For a little bit of love, Many souls in vain are calling For a little bit of love; If they die in sin and shame, Someone surely is to blame For not going in His name, With a little bit of love. With a little bit of love, With a little bit of love. For not going in His name, With a little bit of love. 4 While the souls of men are dying For a little bit of love, While the children, too, are crying For a little bit of love; Stand no longer idly by, You can help them if you try; Go, then, saying, "Here am I," With a little bit of love. With a little bit of love, With a little bit of love, Go, then, saying, "Here am I" With a little bit of love. Languages: English Tune Title: [Do you know the world is dying]
