DAY BY DAY


Day by day and with each passing moments
Strength I find to meet my trials here
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment
I've no cause for worry or for fear

He whose heart is kind beyond all measures
Gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly it's part of pain and pleasure
Mingling toil, peace and rest

Help me then in ev'ry tribulation
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord
That I lose not faith's sweet consolation
Offered me within Thy holy Word

Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting
E'er to take, as from a father's hand
One by one, the days the moment's fleeting
'Til i reach the Promised Land
