Isiah 41

11 - Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’

From JPS Tanakh 1917

Fear thou not, for I am with thee, Be not dismayed, for I am thy God; I strengthen thee, yea, I help thee; Yea, I uphold thee with My victorious right hand.

Day by day, and with each passing moment

Translator: A. L. Skoog; Author: Carolina Sandell (1865)

1Day by day and with each passing moment, 

Strength I find to meet my trials here; 

Trusting in my Father's wise bestowment, 

I've no cause for worry or for fear. 

He whose heart is kind beyond all measure 

Gives unto each day what he deems best–

Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure, 

Mingling toil with peace and rest. 

2 Ev'ry day the Lord himself is near me, 

With a special mercy for each hour; 

All my cares he gladly bears and cheers me, 

He whose name is Counselor and Pow'r.

The protection of his child and treasure 

Is a charge that on himself he laid:

"As your days, your strength shall be in measure"– 

This the pledge to me he made. 

3 Help me then in ev'ry tribulation 

So to trust your promises, O Lord, 

That I lose not faith's sweet consolation 

Offered me within your holy Word. 

Help me, Lord, when, toil and trouble meeting, 

E'er to take, as from a father's hand, 

One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,

Till I reach the promised land.

May all have a blessed Sunday!
