|
I live a simple life, I take a day at a time
|
I spend my mornings with God before I hit the grind
|
The subtleties of darkness never cease to amaze
|
As a physical world creates a spiritual haze
|
|
Blinded by distractions
|
Lost in matterless affairs
|
Reaching through the darkness
|
Trusting You will meet me there
|
|
(chorus)
|
Day by day, day by day
|
Day by day, day by day
|
Oh dear Lord, three things I pray [one, two, three]
|
To see thee more clearly [day by day]
|
To love thee more dearly [day by day]
|
To follow thee more nearly [I got to take it]
|
Day by day
|
|
You cruise around the corner
|
You watch your back
|
|
You sweep your feet down alley streets
|
Sometimes you creep, I never see you coming
|
Monday, man you're on my back
|
Like a knapsack strapped with my heavy burden
|
|
No, You cannot condemn me
|
I won't buy your bag of goods
|
You've got nothing for me anyway
|
That's why I pray
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
These three things
|
I do pray
|
Day by day
|
|
Day by day, by day, by day
|
[These three things]
|
Day by day, by day, by day
|
[I do pray]
|
Day by day, by day, by day, by day (2x) [it's one step out of time]
|
|
(repeat chorus)
|
|
As you walk
|
Day by day
|
Go to God and pray,
|
"I'm gonna go Your way"
|
|
[I'm gonna pray]
|
See thee more clearly [every day]
|
Love thee more dearly [oooh, oh yeah]
|
Follow thee more nearly [I'm gonna go your way]
|
Does any body hear me?
|
|
Day by day, by day, by day by
|
Day by day, by day, by day by
|
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
|
|
[I know I'm always safe with you]
|
[One day at a time]
|
