Little By Little

   

Inch by inch, 
Day by day, 
Step by step, 
All the way, 

Piece by piece, 
Bit by bit, 
Little by little you're there! 

If you can't climb a mountain, then 
climb a hill, 
That's much better than 
standing still, 

There's a way if you've the will, 
And little by little you're there! 
If you can't swim an ocean, then ford a stream! 
Just "remodel" your basic scheme; 

Don't give up till you reach your dream, 
And little by little you're there! 
Good things that are here to stay don't get done in just one day. 

Once you start you're on your way, so keep on going. 
If you can't make a million, don't draw a blank! 
Just keep filling your piggy bank! 

You'll have only yourself to thank, 
When little by little you're there! 

Every rose was once a bud, 
One small raindrop starts a flood, 
Acorns planted in the mud will grow you know! 

If you can't walk a mile, take one long stride, 
Move along with a sense of pride, 
Step by step till your satisfied 
And little by little you're there!
