  5-days-a-week through Daniel and other late OT books in 2023 Our opening prayer this week: Day by day, your mercies, Lord, attend me,  bringing comfort to my anxious soul.  Day by day, the blessings, Lord, you send me draw me nearer to my heav’nly goal.  Love divine, beyond all mortal measure,  brings to naught the burdens of my quest;  Savior, lead me to the home I treasure,  where at last I’ll find eternal rest. Day by day, I know you will provide me  strength to serve and wisdom to obey;  I will seek your loving will to guide me o’er the paths I struggle day by day.  I will fear no evil of the morrow,  I will trust in your enduring grace.  Savior, help me bear life’s pain and sorrow  till in glory I behold your face. Oh, what joy to know that you are near me  when my burdens grow too great to bear;  oh, what joy to know that you will hear me  when I come, O Lord, to you in prayer.  Day by day, no m...
