1 I must do some kindness for those I meet,
For only today is mine;
Spite of weary burdens keep pure and sweet,
For only today is mine.

Refrain:
Only today my eyes may see,
Tomorrow may come, but not for me,
Help me, dear Saviour, to live for Thee,
Only today is mine.

2 To the ones that stumble I’ll lend a hand,
For only today is mine;
Help them struggle upward and bravely stand,
For only today is mine. [Refrain]

3 I must seek the erring who else might stray,
For only today is mine;
Lead them past the pitfalls that fill the way,
For only today is mine. [Refrain]

4 In some loving service I’ll take a part,
For only today is mine;
Work for Jesus gladly with hand and heart,
For only today is mine. [Refrain]
