Yesterday's dead, tomorrow's unborn,
So there's nothing to fear and nothing to mourn,
For all that is past and all that has been
Can never return to be lived once again...
And what lies ahead or the things that will be
Are still in God's hands, so it is not up to me.
To live in the future that is God's great unknown,
For the past and the present God claims for His own...
All I need to do is to live for today
And trust God to show me the truth and the way.
For it's only the memory of things that have been
And expecting tomorrow to bring trouble again
That fills my today, which God wants to bless,
With uncertain fears and borrowed distress...
For all I need live for is this one little minute,
For life's here and now and eternity's in it.
