Only For Today...
Phil.4:4-7Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Not for tomorrow’s load of careBut only for todayI lift to Thee a simple prayerTo be my Strength and Stay
Not for tomorrow’s want and needDo I pour out my heartBut only for today I plead‘Lord, help me do my part’
Not for tomorrow’s battle-cryNor morrow’s miseryBut only for today, supplyMercy’s kind courtesy
Not for tomorrow’s come-what-mayDo I beseech Thy graceDear Lord, but only for todayBe sorrow’s resting place
Lord, list'ner of love's humble prayerIn Jesus’ name I prayFit me, not for tomorrow’s careBut only for today
And, should courage and confidenceFalter, Lord, help me hearYour whisper, like a thousand winds 'Fear not, for I am near'
