Christ in Song 497
Moment by Moment
1Moment by moment, hour by hour,
Constantly trusting His keeping pow'r;
Day by day and week by week,
Only His praise my tongue shall speak.
RefrainMoment by moment,
Helper is He,
Moment by moment dwelling in me;
Gently subduing powers of sin,
Wonderful Saviour is Christ within.
2Why for the body anxious tho't?
Knowing He careth, sweet is my lot;
Mine is the asking,
His the store,
Moment by moment, o'er and o'er.
3Why should the spirit doubting weep?
What I've committed, surely He'll keep;
Mine is the trusting,
His the pow'r,
Moment by moment, hour by hour.
4Why for the resting sing or sigh,
Selfishly seeking mansions on high?
Earth needeth more of holy love,
Than all the universe above.
