Skoog, 1856-1934 Hymnal: HFLC1974 #561 (1974) Meter: Irregular First Line: Day by day and with each passing moment Lyrics: 1 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. 2 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 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 the pledge to me He made. 3 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 I reach the promised land.
