Appears in 9 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Little words of kindness, Whispered soft and low, With a thrill of gladness, To the heart they go, Lighting up its darkness, With a cheering ray, Changing heavy sadness To the light of day. 2 Little words of kindness, Lo, a work of love, God's own hand records them, In the world above; They, whose words of pity Dry the mourner's tears, Have the Savior's blessing Thro' their earthly years. 3 Little words of kindness Seem of little worth, Yet we cannot buy them With the gold of earth; Scatter, then, like sunbeams, Many a word of love, And the Lord of heaven Bless you from above.
