Do you know the world is dying For a little bit of love?
Everywhere we hear the sighing For a little bit of love;
For the love that rights a wrong, Fills the heart with hope and song;
They have waited, oh, so long, For a little bit of love.
For a little bit of love, For a little bit of love,
They have waited, oh, so long, For a little bit of love,
2
From the poor of every city, For a little bit of love,
Hands are reaching out for pity, For a little bit of love;
Some have burdens hard to bear, Some have sorrows we would share;
Shall they falter and despair For a little bit of love?
For a little bit of love, For a little bit of love,
Shall they falter and despair For a little bit of love?
3
Down before their idols falling, For a little bit of love,
Many souls in vain are calling For a little bit of love;
If they die in sin and shame, Someone surely is to blame
For not going in His Name, With a little bit of love.
With a little bit of love, With a little bit of love,
For not going in His Name, With a little bit of love.
4
While the souls of men are dying, For a little bit of love,
While the children, too, are crying, For a little bit of love,
Stand no longer idly by, You can help them if you try;
Go, then saying, "Here am I," With a little bit of love.
With a little bit of love, With a little bit of love,
Go, then saying, "Here am I," With a little bit of love.
