127. Strength for To-day

1 Strength for today in house and home,
So practice forbearance sweetly,
And scatter kind words and loving deeds,
Still trusting in God completely.

Refrain:
Strength for today, rejoice alway,
The joy of the Lord is thy strength for today;
Strength for today; O hear Him say:
“The joy of the Lord is thy strength for today.”

2 Strength for today:—a precious boon
For all earnest souls who labor,
For all willing hands that minister
To each needy friend and neighbor. [Refrain]

3 Strength for today is all we need,
As there will be no tomorrow;
Tomorrow will be another day,
With measures of joy and sorrow. [Refrain]
