Day by day and with each passing moment,
strength I find to meet my trials here;
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment,
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear.
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure
gives unto each day what He deems best—
lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure,
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,
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
The protection of His child and treasure
is a charge that on Himself He laid;
“As your days, your strength shall be in measure,”
“As your days, your strength shall be in measure,”
this the pledge to me He made.

Help me then in ev’ry tribulation
so to trust Your promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation
offered me within Your holy Word.
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
e’re to take, as from the father’s hand,
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
till I reach the promised land.
