JUST FOR TODAY
by David L. White
Just for Today
And for tonight,too,
My life I will devote
And Prove myself true.
Just for Today
I won't dwell on past mistakes,
Which only brings me down
And makes my heart to ache.
Just for Today
I'll seek my soul's cleansing,
To free me from defilement
Thro' the Gracious Help You're lending.
Just for Today
I won't take on the world's cares,
I have enough of my own
But will seek God to bless all thro' prayer.
Just for Today
I will seek peaceful relations,
And do my best to promote
Peace within, and among all nations.
Just for Today
I will seek my 'daily bread,'
And seek present sustenance
As on Thy Word, I'm fed.
Just for Today
With the breath given me,
I will praise Thy Holy name
O Thou, so True, Worthy!
Just for Today
I will reach out with Love,
And uplift those who are hurting
With God's Goodness from above.
Just for Today
I will plant the seeds of Tomorrow,
That in time will bring Joy's fullness
And spare me from future sorrow.
Just for Today
I will carry my cross,
And for my dear King of Kings
Count all things for Christ, but lost.
Just for Today
And each day, a day at a time,
I will live out my life
As your Strength, I find.
Just for Today
I will be in touch,
'Cause Your Fellowship Divine
To me, means so much.
And if for Today
For all these things I strive,
I'll not be possessed of idle hands
But will truly be Alive!
