The Journey Of Today
By James Dillet Freeman
Dawn is the threshold of today.
Dawn is an open door
That sends you up a sunlit way
You have not climbed before.
You know that God does not give
You hills too hard to climb;
His love ordains that you shall live
But one day at a time.
Let go dead yesterday’s regret,
Tomorrow’s phantom fear;
Live in the living now and let
The present good appear.
Even a stay-at-home must make
The journey of today;
Go with a willing heart and take
Love’s lamp to light your way.
Prayer be the staff you lean upon;
With faith your feet be shod.
Today you do not walk alone—
Today you walk with God
