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 matter less affairs
Reaching through the darkness
Trusting You will meet me there
Day by day, day by day
Day by day, day by day
Oh dear Lord, three things I pray, yea
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 know He comes around the corner}
You sweep Your feet down alley streets
Sometimes You creep, I never see You comin'
Monday, man You're on my back
Like a knapsack strapped where my empty poolin' love
You cannot condemn me
I won't buy Your bag of goods
You've got nothing for me anyway
That's why I pray
Day by day, day by day
Day by day, day by day
Oh dear Lord, three things I pray, yea
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
These three things
I do pray, day by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
Day by day, day by
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
Just one step at a time
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
So I see Thee more clearly
I'm gonna pray
Love Thee more dearly
I'm gonna pray
Follow Thee more nearly
I'm gonna go Your way
Does any body hear me?
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
You know you got to say it
