Oh little lips
I pray you say great things
But if great words you have none
And speak only silent few
May your hands show your works of faith
Oh little hands
I pray you do big things
But if you do no big things
And instead do many little
I pray you do them with a big heart
Oh little heart
I pray you change the world
But if you cannot change the world
And instead change just one life
I pray you make change while standing firm
Oh little feet
I pray that you go far
But if you do not go far
And instead stay close to home
I pray your love still reaches out
Oh little love
So pure and unhindered by the world
I pray that you see Jesus
But even if you cannot see Him
I pray that others see Him in you.
