- 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 measure, gives unto each day what He deems best
Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure, mingling toil with peace and rest
- Ev'ry day the Lord Himself is near me, with a special mercy for each hour
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me, He whose name is Counselor and Pow'r
The protection of His child and treasure is a charge that on Himself He laid
"As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure" --this the pledge to me He made
- 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 moments fleeting, till I reach the promised land
