THIS DAY.

By James Buckham

FATHER, help me on my way Day by day! Not too far I'd look ahead; Brief and plain the path I tread; Give me daily strength and bread— Thus I'll pray.
Just this day in all I do To be true! Little loaf takes little leaven— Duty for this day, not seven, That is all of earth and heaven, If we knew!
Ah, how needlessly we gaze Down the days, Troubled for next week, next year, Overlooking now and here! “Heart, the only sure is near,” Wisdom says.
Step by step and day by day, All the way! So the pilgrim soul wins through, Finds each morn the strength to do All God asks of me or you— This: obey. — James Buckham.
