Couplet 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 measure
Gives unto each day
What he deems best
Lovingly it's part
Of pain and pleasure
Mingling toil
With peace and rest

Couplet 2

Every day the Lord himself
Is near me
With a special mercy
For each hour
All my cares He gladly
Bears and cheers 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 your days
Your strength shall be in measure
This the pledge
To me He has made

Couplet 3

Help me then
In every tribulation
So to trust
Your promises O Lord
That I lose
Not faith's sweet consolation
Offered me
Within Your 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
