By Small and Simple Things - SATB
"By Small and Simple Things" for Mixed SATB Chorus and Piano is a nice addition to the sacred repertoire for Youth Choir. The message explores all of the small acts and situations that lead to tremendous worthwhile outcomes. The last sections features each voice part stating their own mantra for using small things to produce great things in their own lives. Accessible for late Junior High voices as well as High School aged singers and Adult Choirs. Great for small ensembles as well as large choirs. This song was written especially for Youth Chorus, but will work well for any choir of mixed voices for sacred services as well as concerts.

By Small and Simple Things Words and Music by Betsy Lee Bailey
By small and simple things are great things brought to pass.
By small and simple things are great things brought to pass.
With a helm a great ship is turned; Through obedience, faith is learned.
Line o line, truth on truth we are taught by godly grace.
As a seedling becomes a tree, we learn holiness by degree
Until our hearts fill with hope and we feel the Lord's embrace.
Twig by twig robins build their nests; Deed by deed we are heaven blessed.
Doing good day by day, we will tread as Jesus trod.
Showing kindness to those in need, being gentle in word and deed,
As perfect love fills our hearts we'll inherit the kingdom of God.

are great things brought to pass. By small and simple things are great things brought to pass. By small and simple things are great things brought to pass. By small and simple things are great things brought to pass. |
As many strokes create a portrait,
So our lives reflect the Lord. Every time I read the Holy Scriptures, I feel the goodness of His word. And every day I'll wear the armor that befits a son of God. By small and simple things are great things brought to pass. |
By small and simple things are great things brought to pass.
By small and simple things are great things, are great things,
Are great things brought to pass.
By small and simple things are great things, are great things,
Are great things brought to pass.
