Lord, You have always given 

bread for the coming day;

and though I am poor, today I believe. 

 

Lord, You have always given 

strength for the coming day;

and though I am weak, today I believe. 

 

Lord, You have always given

peace for the coming day;

and though of anxious heart, today I believe. 

 

Lord, You have always kept me

safe in trials;

and now, tried as I am, today I believe.

 

Lord, You have always marked 

the road for the coming day;

and though it may be hidden, today I believe.

 

Lord, You have always lightened 

this darkness of mine;

and though the night is here, today I believe. 

 

Lord, You have always spoken 

when time was ripe;

and though you be silent now, today I believe.
