Lord, for tomorrow and its needs
I do not pray,
Keep me, my God, from stain of sin,
Just for today.
Let me both diligently work
And duly pray,
Let me be kind in word and deed,
Just for today.
Let me be slow to do my will,
Prompt to obey;
Help me to sacrifice myself,
Just for today.
Let me no wrong or idle word
Unthinking say;
Set Thou a seal upon my lips,
Just for today.
Let me in season, Lord, be grave,
In season gay;
Let me be faithful to Thy grace,
Just for today.
Lord, for tomorrow and its needs
I do not pray;
But keep me, guide me, love me, Lord,
Just for today.
