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. |

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 Counsellor and Pow’r. The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; “As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,” This the pledge to me He made. |

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 with Christ the Lord I stand. |

It is so unique and beautiful, it displays the wonderful attributes of God, the depth of His love and compassion of His towards us. I believe it is just as effective today as the day it was written.

This song has never been one of my favorites until now, because of the way it is played. So sweetly. Thank you, Hymnal.net!

I feel so lonely tonight; doing God's work alone in this city. One of my partner left me to do God's will, but I remember this song, and tonight I sing it with my Lord. I can feel that He is with me tonight, holding my hands and saying to not worry for everything ahead me. He's already proved it through all my life. Why shouldn't I trust Him now. Thank You my dear Lord.

This song has always been special to me and I just copied part of it to send to my daughter who has been going through some hard times. The phrase that has stuck with me most since I first heard it is "The protection of His child and treasure is a charge that on Himself he laid." What better place could we ever be than the hands of our Almighty Loving Heavenly Father?

I like this song because of its wonderful melody. The text contains very deep truths of our Christian faith. The Lord really knows our necessities and He also helps us when we're going through the dark lonesome valley. This song should be sung in every church around this world.

This song my dad has whistled and sung for years. He was a missionarry for over 30 years in West Africa, and it met his heart's needs. A lot of missionary friends of his love this song.

This is one of the most beautifully written songs I have ever heard. I wish more churches would bring hymns into their type of worship, for many reasons. All positive reasons. I love this song!

The hymns hold me up and keep me joyful during weary days. How I thank God for the fellowship we share with these brothers and sisters who wrote down and published the poems of their hearts. Thank you for this website. In His unfailing love,

This song really uplifts my confidence today. Lets be assured that God indeed will meet all our needs, both material and spiritual things. Jeremiah 29:11.
