My Father, This I Asked Of Thee,
Knowing That Thou Wilt Grant
The Plea;
For This, And Only This, I Pray:
Strength For To-Day
Just For To-Day.
Strength For Each Trial
And Each Task,
What More, My Father,
Should I Ask?
Just As I Need It, Day By Day,
Strength For My Weakness
This I Pray.
I Do Not Ask A Lifted Load,
Nor For A Smooth
And Thornless Road;
Supply For Strength Enough To Bear
Life’s Daily Burdens Anywhere.
Strength For Each Trial
And Each Task,
What More, My Father,
Should I Ask?
Just As I Need It, Day By Day,
Strength For My Weakness
This I Pray.
Strength For The Present
Hour And Need
This Given, Then I’m Blest Indeed;
For Each Day, As It Comes,
Will Bring
Sufficient Strength For Anything.
Strength For Each Trial
And Each Task,
What More, My Father,
Should I Ask?
Just As I Need It, Day By Day,
Strength For My Weakness
This I Pray.
Strength For To-Day,
That I May Make
Some Sad Souls Glad
For Jesus’ Sake;
Then They With Me
At Ever Shall Say,
Thank God For Strength
He Gave To-Day.
Strength For Each Trial
And Each Task,
What More, My Father,
Should I Ask?
Just As I Need It, Day By Day,
Strength For My Weakness
This I Pray.
