JUST FOR TO-DAY. LORD! for to-morrow and its needs I do not pray; Keep me, my GOD, from stain of sin, Let me both diligently work And duly pray; Let me be kind in word and deed, Just for to-day. Let me be slow to do my will, Help me to mortify my flesh, Let me no wrong or idle word Set thou a seal upon my lips, Let me in season, LORD, be grave, In season gay; Let me be faithful to Thy grace, Just for to-day. And if to-day my life Should ebb away, Give me Thy Sacraments Divine, So, for to-morrow and its needs I do not pray; But keep me, guide me, Just for to-day. |
