For This One Day

By Edna S. Valentine

For this one day — Grant us sight to see the road, Creep plainly on our winding way, And grant us strength to bear the load For this one day.
For this one day — Guide our feet the road along, Let not our weary footsteps stray, Help us to lift a stave of song, For this one day.
For this one day — Let us not see the mud beneath, But know the gold above the gray, And smell the wind from off the heath, For this one day.
For this one day — When bowed at eve for benison, Grant that upon the uphill way Our passing smile has gladdened one, On this one day.
—Edna S. Valentine.
