Religion
Give thanks to-day, and let to-morrow take
From Verses (1893)
Religion
Give thanks to-day, and let to-morrow take
Heed to itself; to-day imports thee more,
To-morrow may not dawn like yesterday:
Until that unknown morrow go thy way,
Suffer and work and strive for Jesus’ sake:—
Who tells thee what to-morrow keeps in store?
