Little Drops of Water
Author: Mrs. J. A. Carney Hymnal: The Hymnal for Boys and Girls #116 (1936) Lyrics: 1 Little drops of water,
Little grains of sand,
Make the mighty ocean
And the beauteous land.
2 Little deeds of kindness,
Little words of love,
Make our earth an Eden,
Like the heav'ns above.
3 Little seeds of mercy
Sown by youthful hands,
Grow to bless the nations
Far in other lands.
4 Glory then for ever
Be to God on high,
Beautiful and loving,
To eternity.
Amen.

Martin Shaw
1875 - 1958 Composer of "CAMBER" in The Beacon Song and Service book Martin F. Shaw was educated at the Royal College of Music in London and was organist and choirmaster at St. Mary's, Primrose Hill (1908-1920), St. Martin's in the Fields (1920-1924), and the Eccleston Guild House (1924-1935). From 1935 to 1945 he served as music director for the diocese of Chelmsford. He established the Purcell Operatic Society and was a founder of the Plainsong and Medieval Society and what later became the Royal Society of Church Music.
Author of The Principles of English Church Music Composition (1921), Shaw was a notable reformer of English church music. He worked with Percy Dearmer (his rector at St. Mary's in Primrose Hill); Ralph Vaughan Williams, and his brother Geoffrey Shaw in publishing hymnals such as Songs of Praise (1925, 1931) and the Oxford Book of Carols (1928). A leader in the revival of English opera and folk music scholarship, Shaw composed some one hundred songs as well as anthems and service music; some of his best hymn tunes were published in his Additional Tunes in Use at St. Mary's (1915).
