Make Today Your Best Day

Representative Text

1 Give your all to the Master here,
Time is passing alway;
Serve His cause with a heart sincere,
Make to-day your best day.

Chorus:
Live for the Lord who redeemed your soul,
Since in His goodness He made you whole.
Let Him your talents by love control,
Make to-day your best day.

2 He will answer your heart's appeal,
When for favor you pray!
Love and light thro' His word reveal!
Make to-day your best day. [Chorus]

3 Wander not from His blessed side,
He will brighten the way
For the ones who in Him confide!
Make to-day your best day. [Chorus]

4 Tell His mercy to those in need,
Show them Jesus, the way;
Bid them come while He gently pleads,
Make to-day your best day. [Chorus]
