Lord
for tomorrow and its needs I do not pray;
Keep me
my God
from stain of sin just for today.
Help me to labor earnestly and duly pray;
Let me be kind in word and deed
Father
today.
Let me no wrong or idle word unthinking say;
Set Thou a seal upon my lips through all today.
Let me in season
Lord
be grave
in season gay;
Let me be faithful to Thy grace
dear Lord
today.
And if
today
this life of mine should ebb away
Give me Thy sacrament divine
Father
today.
So for today and its needs I do not pray;
Still keep me
guide me
love me
Lord
through each day.
