Day by Day Words by Caroline V. Sandell-Berg; tr. A.L. Skoog Music by Oscar Ahnfelt Words and Music public domain 517
Day by dayand with each passing momentStrength I find to meet my trials here
Trusting inmy Father’s wise bestowmentI’ve no cause for worry or for fear
He whose heart is kindbeyond all measureGives unto each daywhat He deems best
Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasureMingling toil with peace and rest
Ev’ry day the Lord Himself is near meWith a special mercy for each hour
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer meHe whose nameis Counselor and Pow’r
The protectionof His child and treasureIs a charge that on Himself He laid
As thy days, thy strengthshall be in measureThis the pledge to me He made
Help me then in ev’ry tribulationSo to trust Thy promises, O Lord
That I losenot faith’s sweet consolationOffered me within Thy holy Word
Help me, Lordwhen toil and trouble meetingE’er to take, as from a father’s hand
One by one, the daysthe moments fleetingTill I reach the Promised Land
