Deal only with the present, Never step into tomorrow, For God asks us just to trust Him And to never borrow sorrowFor the future is not ours to know
And it may never be, So let us live and give our best
And give it lavishlyFor to meet tomorrow's troubles
Before they are even ours Is to anticipate the Saviour And to doubt His alFwise powers' So let us be content to solve Our problems one by one, Asking nothing o f tomorrow Except "Thy Will Be D one."
