Little Missions

Author: Benjamin M. Chase Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Though you may not cross the ocean Lyrics: 1 Though you may not cross the ocean, To the land where heathen dwell, And to them the wondrous story Of the love of Jesus tell, You can be a missionary, There is much that you can do, All around are little missions, That the Lord has giv’n to you. 2 To the doubting ones around you, To the weary and oppressed, You can speak kind words of comfort That will give them peace and rest; You can serve the old and feeble, You can go the sick to see, And your Savior’s voice will whisper, "Ye have have done it unto Me." 3 Though you may not have great riches, And your talents may be few, You should give to God a portion Of what He has giv’n to you; Little offerings from the children Are most precious in His sight, He will take them and will bless them, As He did the widow’s mite. Used With Tune: DENALI Text Sources: Harmonies of Praise (New York: Benjamin M. Chase, 1909)
