Day by Day and with Each Passing Moment

Author: Carolina V. Sandell Berg; A. L. Skoog Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #255 (2018) Meter: Irregular Topics: Protection 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 Ev'ry 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 ev'ry tribulation so to trust your promises, O Lord, that I lose not faith’s sweet consolation offered me within your 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, 'til I reach the promised land.

Beneath the cross of Jesus

Author: Elizabeth C. Clephane, 1830-1869 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #325 (1917) Topics: Cross Its Protection; Cross Its Protection Lyrics: 1 Beneath the cross of Jesus I fain would take my stand The shadow of a mighty rock Within a weary land. O blessed shelter from the storm, The sinner's sure retreat: O trysting-place, where heavenly love And heavenly justice meet. 2 There lies beyond its shadow Upon the farther side The darkness of an awful pit That opens deep and wide; But, lo, between, there stands the cross Of Him who died to save With His own life-blood my lost soul From that eternal grave. 3 Upon the cross of Jesus Mine eye by faith can see The very dying form of One Who suffered there for me; And from my smitten heart with tears Two wonders I confess, The wonders of His glorious love, And my own worthlessness. 4 O Christ, beneath that shadow Be my abiding-place; I ask no other sunshine than The sunshine of Thy face; Content to let the world go by, And count its gain but loss; This sinful self my only shame, My only hope Thy cross.
