lyrics

Day 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

Every day, the Lord Himself is near me
With a special mercy for each hour
All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me
He whose Name is Counselor and Power
The protection of His child and treasure
Is a charge that on Himself He laid
“As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure”
This the pledge to me He made

Help me then in every tribulation
So to trust Thy promises, O Lord
That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation
Offered me within Thy holy Word
Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting
Ever to take, as from a father’s hand
One by one, the days, the moments fleeting
Till I reach the promised land

about

barrypeters Lloydminster, Alberta

Welcome! I've been playing music since I was 3-4 years old: piano, violin, clarinet, drums and guitar. I am passionate about music because through it God moves us and speaks to us about His grace, truth and righteousness. I hope you enjoy my mixture of folk, classical, rock and blues music. ... more
