It’s the little things that matter
As you travel down the road,
There’s joy and great contentment
In sharing someone’s load.
To you its such a little thing
And hardly worth the time,
But truly it can mean a lot
With a long hard hill to climb.
Our lives are filled with ups and down,
More downs than ups, it seems;
But often times a helping hand
Brings closer still our dreams.
If there be that which we may do
To lighten someone’s way,
Let’s do it, then, and thank the Lord
He made this lovely privileged day.
