Lyrics

Just a lit­tle kind­ness
Sown along the wea­ry road;
Just a lit­tle lift­ing
Of an­oth­er’s hea­vy load;
Just a lit­tle pi­ty
That is ten­der­ly be­stowed,
May win a soul for Je­sus.

Refrain

In the name of Him who died for you,
To your vow of ser­vice are you true?
Never, then, ne­glect it,
For when you least ex­pect it,
You may win a soul for Je­sus.

Just a lit­tle sac­ri­fice
Of ease that we have earned;
Just a lit­tle shar­ing
Of a les­son we have learned;
Just a lit­tle stir­ring
Of the flame that low has burned,
May win a soul for Je­sus.

Refrain

Just a lit­tle plead­ing
In the name of Him who died;
Just a lit­tle ear­nest­ness,
Like His, who is your guide;
Just a lit­tle long­ing
For some­one lost at your side,
May win a soul for Je­sus.
