Day By Day

	  		verse 1: 

       Eb                         Ab 
Day by day, and with each passing moment, 
           Bb                     Eb 
Strength I find to meet my trials here; 
                                Ab 
Trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment, 
         Bb                     Eb 
I’ve no cause for worry or for fear. 
           G                       Ab 
He, whose heart is kind beyond all measure, 
        F                          Eb 
Gives unto each day what He deems best, 
                               Ab 
Lovingly its part of pain and pleasure, 
          Bb                   Eb 
Mingling toil with peace and rest. 

verse 2: 
      Eb                       Ab 
Every day the Lord Himself is near me, 
       Bb                      Eb 
With a special mercy for each hour; 
                                     Ab 
All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me, 
         Bb                     Eb 
He whose name is Counsellor and Pow’r. 
        G                       Ab 
The protection of His child and treasure 
     F                         Eb 
Is a charge that on Himself He laid; 
                                       Ab 
’As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,â?� 
         Bb              Eb 
This the pledge to me He made. 

verse 3: 
         Eb                 Ab 
Help me then, in every tribulation, 
      Bb                    Eb 
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, 
                                   Ab 
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation, 
        Bb                  Eb 
Offered me within Thy holy Word. 
         G                           Ab 
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, 
        F                        Eb 
E’er to take, as from a father’s hand, 
                                  Ab 
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, 
       Bb                 Eb 
Till I reach the Promised land.
