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 hazeBlinded by distractions
Lost in matterless affairs
Reaching through the darkness
Trusting You will meet me thereDay 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 dayYou cruise around the corner
You watch your backYou 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 with my heavy burdenNo, You cannot condemn me
I won't buy your bag of goods
You've got nothin' for me anyway
That's why I prayDay by day
(Day by day)
Day by day
(Day by day)Oh dear Lord, three things I pray
