Bit by bit, little by little
I’m gonna love the Lord
Day by day, little by little
I’m gonna grow some more

1
He has changed my heart of stone to flesh
He has given me new life
Through His words of life our spots removed
By giving us His life, we’re gonna be His wife

2
I have died with Him and raised again
He has changed my old to new
We are being built, this new abode,
A home of me and you, divine and human too

Bit by Bit, Little by Little

"a person of song" 

God wants to lead His children toward a walk of finer, tenderer, and more song-like feelings. This is why He gives us many kinds of songs in the Bible. Songs are the expression of man's finest feelings. The deepest feelings that flow from a man's heart are the feelings expressed in songs.

We must learn to sing hymns. We are not trying to be musicians, we are trying to have a tender feeling — a feeling that is fine toward the Lord. 

"My beloved put his hand into the opening of the door, / And my inner parts yearned for him. I rose up to open to my beloved; / And my hands dripped with myrrh, / My fingers with liquid myrrh, / Upon the handles of the bolt." (Song of Songs 5:4-5)

"Make my joy full, that you think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking the one thing," (Philippians 2:2)

"The kingdom of the heavens is like a treasure hidden in the field, which a man found and hid, and in his joy goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field." (Matthew 13:44)
