Primary Scripture: 1 Samuel 3:9

God make my life a little light Within the world to glow; A little flame that burneth bright Wherever I may go.

Verse 2

God make my life a little flower That giveth joy to all, Content to bloom in native bower Although the place be small.

God make my life a little staff Whereon the weak may rest, That so what strength and health I have May serve my neighbours best.
