Lyrics to the hymn, Day By Day

Picture of a car



Nothing But The Blood Of Jesus 

Love Lifted Me 

           Introduction  

Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where today, I am writing the lyrics to the hymn, Day By Day; it was written in 1865 by Lina Sandell.

Lina Sandell wrote it years after she watched her father die by drowning, which is something nobody be forced to see.

Rest in peace, Lina Sandell; may up you be happy with the Lord.

If you don't know how the tune goes, go to YouTube and look up Folksandhymns; as usual, the way the song is sung is beautiful.

Now, on with the show!


             The Lyrics

Verse 1 

Day by day, and with each passing moment,

Strength I find to meet my trials here; 

Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment, 

I've no cause for worry or for fear.

He, who's heart is kind beyond all measures,

Gives unto each day what He deems best,

Lovingly, it's part of pain and pleasure,

Mingling toil with peace and rest.

Verse 2 

Everyday, the Lord Himself is near me,

With a special mercy for each hour;

All my cares He fain would bear and cheer me, 

He who's name is Counsellor and Pow'r.

The protection of His child and treasure

Is a charge that on Himself He laid;

"As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure,"

This the pledge to me He made.

Verse 3

Help me then, in every tribulation, 

So to trust Thy promises, oh Lord,

That I lose not faith's sweet consolation,

Offered me within Thy Holy Word.

Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,

E'er to take, as from a father's hand,

One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,

'Til with Christ the Lord I stand.



       Afterwards

I honestly don't think I'll ever hear the song the way I used to; I mean, I used to not care for it that much, but when you hear something like that...

You can't hear a story like that and not have your view on something change.

          The road with a beautiful view 

                      The road and a mountain



If there is a particular subject that you want me to cover, let me know down in the comments.

I update on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Random Chatty Days.




Before we go, I just want to make sure you understand something: appreciate the people in your life; forever is not forever, and they could die at any minute.

Share the gospel with the lost.

Goodbye, and God bless.

Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write the lyrics to hymns, and the occasional recipe. Today, the hymn we are looking at is called This Is My Father's World; it was written in 1901 by a Mr. Maltbie Davenport Babcock. It was originally a poem with sixteen verses, but when it was set to music, only three verses were chosen. A tree and a bush Someday I might do the whole poem, but today, I'm just going to do the three that I know. Let me know if you want me to do the whole poem. Go to YouTube and look up Folksandhymns to find the tune. Now, on with the show! The Lyrics  Verse 1 This is my Father's world; And to my listening ears, All nature sings  And 'round me rings  The music of the spheres. This is my Father's world;  I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, Of skies and seas. His hand the wonders wrought. Verse 2 This is my Father's world; The birds, their carols raise. The morning light,  The lily whit

A Kalimba, Ocarina, and Native American Flute      Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where my main thing is hymns. Today's hymn is one of my new favorites, Sweet Hour Of Prayer. It was written in 1845 by Mr. William W. Walford, and it is one of the best hymns in the world. In fact, every hymn I like is one of the best hymns in the world; funny how that works. If you don't how the tune goes, go to YouTube and look up Alan Jackson, or Folksandhymns.  Now, on with the show! A bridge   The Lyrics  Verse 1  Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne  Make all my wants and wishes known. In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief; And oft' escaped the tempter's snare  By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! Verse 2  Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! The joys I feel, the bliss I share, Of those whose anxious spirits burn With stro
