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 moments,
I must treat it as my last.

I must use this moment wisely
For it 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 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,
And I thank God with a humble heart
For giving me this Day.
