I may never see tomorrow; there's no written guarantee And things that happened yesterday belong to history. I cannot predict the future, I cannot change the past, I have just the present moments, I must treat it as my last.
I must use this moment wisely for it soon will pass away, and be lost forever, as part of yesterday. I must exercise compassion, help the fallen to their feet, Be a friend unto the friendless, make an empty life complete.
The unkind things I do today may never be undone, And friendships that I fail to win may nevermore be won. I may not have another chance on bended knees to pray, and I thank God with a humble heart for giving me this Day.
