Hymn 461

Little drops of water

Ọpọ íkán omi

English Yorùbá
Meter 6.5.6.5 Orin Omode
  1. Little drops of water,
    Little grains of sand,
    Make the mighty ocean
    And the beauteous land.

  2. And the little moments,
    Humble though they may be,
    Make the mighty ages
    Of eternity.

  3. Little deeds of kindness,
    Little words of love,
    Make our earth an Eden,
    like the heaven above.

  4. So our little errors
    Lead the soul away,
    From the paths of virtue
    Into sin to stray.

  5. Little seeds of mercy
    Sown by youthful hands,
    Grow to bless the nations
    Far in heathen lands.

  6. Little ones in glory
    Swell the angel's song
    Make us meet dear Saviour
    For their holy throng. Amen.
