“Little Things”

“Little Things”

He was only a lad from Jerusalem,
Not specially bad – or good.
But straight to the Master he went and said,
“Here’s my little parcel of food.
It isn’t much, but it’s all I have: 
My mother gave it to me:
The loaves are few, the fishes but two:
I gladly give them to Thee.”
It was only a parcel of food for one,
But that day it was multiplied
God has chosen the things that are naught,
That HE may be glorified.

She was only a humble village maid
To whom Gabriel came that night;
“Thou art highly favored of God,” he said,
But she trembled at the sight.
“Fear not,” he added, “I bring the good news.
A Son shall be born of thee:
The kingdom of David shall be His right,
And, Jesus, His name shall be.”
She was only a humble village maid
In whom God had come to abide.
But HE has chosen the things that are naught,
That HE may be glorified.

– Written by G.R.H.W.
