X52. Day by Day
-words, Carolina Sandell Berg
p?

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 your days, your strength shall be in measure,” This is 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 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.
