Lord of Today

God of the ages, 

History's Maker

Planning our pathway,

 holding us fast

Shaping in mercy 

all that concerns us

Father, we praise You, 

Lord of the past

God of this morning

Gladly Your children

Worship before You

Trustingly bow

Teach us to know You

Always among us

Quietly sov'reign-

Lord of our now

God of tomorrow, 

Strong Overcomer

Princes of darkness

Own Your command

What then can harm us

We are Your people

Now and forever

Kept by Your hand

Lord of past ages

Lord of this morning

Lord of the future

Help us we pray:

Teach us to trust You

Love and obey You

Crown You each moment

Lord of today

From God of the Ages

"See to it, brothers that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God. but encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness. We have come to share in Christ if we hold firmly till the end the confidence we had at first. As has just been said, 'Today, if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts, as you did in the rebellion.'. . . Therefore God again set a certain day, calling it Today, when a long time later He spoke through David...."
