It may seem like I gotta do a lot to get to you
It may seem like I gotta be the best to be so free
But I know it’s not true
I’m already one with you
It ain't big, it’s the little things
I see it in my children and I see it in my wife
I see it in my next door neighbor and I see it in my life
I see it on the corner and I see it on the street
I see it in the wide-eyed faces of everyone I meet
What makes the difference in our day
Little things we do and the words we say
It may seem like I gotta do a lot to get to you
It may seem like I gotta be the best to be so free
It may seem like I gotta show the wealth of what I know
It may seem like I gotta have a lot to make it last
But there's more we can do
If we see the moment through
It ain't big, it’s the little things
Sometimes I don’t remember, sometimes I forget
Sometimes I say, “it’s a little thing”, though I’m filled with regret
The way in which you love me, I can never return
I pray Lord that you’ll teach my heart so someday I will learn
What makes the difference in our day
Little things we do and the words we say
It may seem like I gotta do a lot to get to you
It may seem like I gotta be the best to be so free
It may seem like I gotta show the wealth of what I know
It may seem like I gotta have a lot to make it last
It may seem like I gotta give the most to really live
It may seem like I gotta pray every moment of the day
It may seem like I gotta win every soul from every sin
It may seem like I gotta end my life to be your friend
But there's more we can do
If we see the moment through
And I know, yes, I know, that it's true
I’m already one with you
It ain't big, it’s the little things
