OHT Incipit:

O what can little hands do
To please the King of Heav'n?
The little hands some work may try
That will some simple need supply:
Such grace to mine be given,
Such grace to mine be given.

O what can little lips do
To please the King of Heav'n?;
The little lips can praise and pray,
And gentle words of kindness say:
Such grace to mine be given,
Such grace to mine be given.

O what can little eyes do
To please the King of Heav'n?
The little eyes can upward look,
Can learn to read God's holy Book:
Such grace to mine be given,
Such grace to mine be given.

O what can little hearts do
To please the King of Heav'n?
Young hearts, if he his Spirit send,
Can love their Maker, Savior, Friend:
Such grace to mine be given,
Such grace to mine be given.
