Little Things

It's just the little homely things,
The unobtrusive, friendly things,
The "won't-you-let-me-help you" things
That make our pathway light -
And it's just the jolly, joking things,
The "never-mind-the trouble" things
The "laugh with me, it's funny" things
That make the world seem bright.

For all the countless famous things,
The wondrous, record-breaking things,
Those "never-can-be-equalled" things
That all the papers cite,
Aren't like the little human things,
The everyday-encountered things,
The "just-because-I-like-you" things
That make us happy quite.

So here's to all the simple things,
The dear "all-in-a-day's-work" things,
The "smile and face your troubles" things,
Trust God to put them right!
The "done and then forgotten" things,
The "can't you see I love you" things,
The hearty "I am with you" things
That make life worth the fight.
