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 the moment wisely

For it soon will pass away

And be lost to me 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.

Any friendships that I fail to win

May nevermore be won.

 

I may not have another chance

On bended knee to pray,

And I thank God with humble heart

For giving me this day.
