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 them 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 knee to pray, And I thank God with a humble heart For giving me this day.
