I May Never See Tomorrow
-
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 moment,
I must treat it as my last.
-
I must use this moment wisely
for I 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 that 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 knees to pray,
to thank God with a humble heart
for giving me this day.
