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.
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.

Every 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 Counsellor and Pow’r.
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid;
“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,”
This the pledge to me He made.
With a special mercy for each hour;

This the pledge to me He made.

Help me then, in every tribulation,
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation,
Offered me within Thy 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 with Christ the Lord I stand.
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation,
Offered me within Thy 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 with Christ the Lord I stand.

This hymn says what I mean.
Tigard, OR, United States
I learned this song by heart as a child. My mom loved to play and sing hymns and I loved singing with her! The Lord has been bringing back all these hymns I learned years ago to encourage me in difficult days recently. The words to this song are His Words to me today! The Lord keeps His promises; He will not forget. I will trust in Him!

I remember hearing my Mother and Grandmother sing this song in such a meaningful way.
The lyrics came to me today as my husband and I are getting older. We struggle with pain and health issues. We walk closer to Him every day.

Beautiful Lyrics, my memories goes back to days when we were worshipping at Good News Center Church /Secunderabad. My Pastor Late Mr. B. A. G Prasad used to guide us in singing along with the Choir.
