What will Today Bring

This is the beginning of a new day
God has given me this day to use as I wish
I can waste it or use it for good
What I do today is important
because I'm exchanging a day of my life for it

When tomorrow comes
this day will be gone forever
leaving in its place
something I have traded for it

I want it to be a gain, not loss
good, not evil
success, not failure.

In order that I shall not regret
the price I have paid for it
Because the future
is just a whole string of now
