STRENGTH FOR TO-DAY

Strength for to-day is all that we need,

As there never will be a to-morrow;

For to-morrow will prove but another to-day,

With its measure of joy and sorrow.

Then why forecast the trials of life

With such sad and grave persistence,

And watch and wait for a crowd of ills

That as yet have no existence?

Strength for to-day—what a precious boon
