Lyrics
My Father, this I ask of Thee;
Knowing that Thou wilt grant the plea,
For this, and only this, I pray,
Strength for today, just for today.
I do not ask a lifted load,
Nor for a smooth and thornless road;
Simply for strength enough to bear
Life's daily burdens anywhere.
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 today, that I may make
Some sad souls glad, for Jesus' sake;
Then they, with me, at eve shall say,
Thank God for strength He gave today.
Chorus:
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.
Knowing that Thou wilt grant the plea,
For this, and only this, I pray,
Strength for today, just for today.
I do not ask a lifted load,
Nor for a smooth and thornless road;
Simply for strength enough to bear
Life's daily burdens anywhere.
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 today, that I may make
Some sad souls glad, for Jesus' sake;
Then they, with me, at eve shall say,
Thank God for strength He gave today.
Chorus:
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.
