Day By Day

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 the physical world creates a spiritual haze

Blinded by distractions
Lost in matterless 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

To see You more clearly (day by day)
To love You more dearly (day by day)
To follow You more nearly
Day by day

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

Day by day (day by day)
Day by day (day by day)
Oh dear Lord, three things I pray

To see You more clearly (day by day)
To love You more dearly (day by day)
To follow You more nearly
Day by day

These three things, I do pray
Day by day

Day by day, by day, by day
(Day by day)
Day by day, by day, by day
(Day by day)
Day by day, by day, by day, by day
(Day by day, day by day, day by day)

Day by day (day by day)
Day by day (day by day)
Oh dear Lord, three things I pray

To see You more clearly (day by day)
To love You more dearly (day by day)
To follow You more nearly
Day by day

As you walk (day by day)
Oh, day by day (day by day)
Oh you gotta pray (oh dear Lord)
I'm gonna go Your way (three things I pray)

See Thee more clearly (oh, every day)
Love Thee more dearly (oh, oh, yeah)
Follow Thee more nearly (I'm gonna go your way)
Can anybody 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
