Ännu En Dag
Christer Sjögren Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blott en dag ett ögonblick i sänder
Vilken tröst vad än som kommer på
Allt ju vilar i min Faders händer
Skulle jag som barn väl ängslas då
Han som bär för mig en Faders hjärta
Giver ju åt varje nyfödd dag
Dess beskärda del av fröjd och smärta
Möda vila och behag

Själv han är mig alla dagar nära
För var särskild tid med särskild nåd
Varje dags bekymmer vill han bära
Han som heter både Kraft och Råd
Att sin dyra egendom bevara
Denna omsorg har han lagt på sig
"Som din dag så skall din kraft ock vara"
Detta löfte gav han mig

Hjälp mig då att vila tryggt och stilla
Blott vid dina löften Herre kär
Ej min tro och ej den tröst förspilla
Som i ordet mig förvarad är
Hjälp mig Herre att vad helst mig händer
Taga ur din trogna fadershand




Blott en dag ett ögonblick i sänder
Tills jag nått det goda land
