[Verse 1]
 D                                 Em
Day by day, and with each passing moment,

            A       A7             D
Strength I find to meet my trials here

                                Em
Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment

          A        A7           D
I've no cause for worry or for fear

                                   G
He whose heart is kind beyond all measure

        A        A7                D
Gives unto each day what He deems best

                                Em
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure

          A          A7       D
Mingling toil with peace and rest
[Verse 2]
 D                             Em
Every day the Lord Himself is near me,

        A      A7              D
With a special mercy for each hour;

                                     Em
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me,

          A        A7            D
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r.

                                  G
The protection of His child and treasure

        A        A7             D
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;

                                        G
“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,”

           A       A7     D
This the pledge to me He made.
[Verse 3]
D                           Em
Help me then, in every tribulation,

        A         A7         D
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,

                                   Em
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation,

        A         A7        D
Offered me within Thy holy Word.

                                      G
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,

         A        A7              D
E’er to take, as from a father’s hand,

                                    G
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,

           A          A7      D
Till with Christ the Lord I stand.
