Take a little piece now 
And save a little for laters 
If you come back in time 
There might be more for the taking 
Bite only what you can chew 
Take only what you can use 
There's plenty to go around if we don't abuse 
Revine the soul by letting go 
The weighty heart and heavy conscience 
Release the woes of a troubled world 
And give them one by one their fair dealing 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Oh take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Oh take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
It's a heavy burden to bare 
If it's knowledge and wisdom we're wasting 
To allow a people to fall forsaken 
It's a heavy load to shift 
What matters now we begin 
And don't take to long with the mending and the fixing 
So many souls are aching 
Too many hearts have been breaking 
Forgive the fools that were mistaken 
No one ever did find a good use for regret 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Oh take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Oh take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Revine the soul by letting go 
Release the woes of a troubled world 
Forgive the fools that were mistaken 
No one ever did find a good use for regret 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Oh take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
Take a little time to give a little more 
Take a little time to know a little more 
Save some time to understand 
So give a little 
Take a little now 
Give a little 
Take a little now 
Give a little 
Take a little now 
Give a little 
Take a little now
