1.Day by day, and with each passing moment,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 measureGives unto each day what He deems best—Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,Mingling toil with peace and rest.2.Every day, the Lord Himself is near meWith a special mercy for each hour;All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me,He Whose Name is Counselor and Power;The protection of His child and treasureIs a charge that on Himself He laid;“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,”This the pledge to me He made.3.Help me then in every tribulationSo to trust Thy promises, O Lord,That I lose not faith’s sweet consolationOffered me within Thy holy Word.Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,Ever to take, as from a father’s hand,One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,Till I reach the promised land.
