Today Is Ours
Our Yesterday is gone. Gone with its cares
And with its heavy burdens and mistakes,
Its half-done tasks, its careless thoughts and words,
Its bitterness and all its pains and aches.
We can’t recall a single word or deed
Of yesterday when it is spent and gone;
God puts it far away and gently says,
“Do better, child, when comes Tomorrow’s dawn.”
Tomorrow is not here. It’s yet unborn.
Why plan today Tomorrow’s care and sorrow?
‘Tis only God knows what each one will find
When he awakes to live in God’s Tomorrow.
We are not strong enough to live and work
And face with courage all Today’s demands,
If, over-anxious, we forget to leave
Tomorrow in God’s loving hands.
Today is ours! Our Yesterday is gone!
And God’s Tomorrow is not ours to know,
His grace is all-sufficient for Today.
This way is best. God planned it so.
