"ONE DAY AT A TIME"

Intro
Ooh, One day at a time
Ooh, One day at a time
Chorus 1
One day at a time,
One step closer to Heaven;
With love as our guide,
Each mountain we'll climb,
One day at a time.

Verse 1
Before us lies an unknown way,
But beside us is our Guide,
And He's there day by day.
He'll fight for you when ya just can't fight,
And He'll whisper words of comfort,
No matter how dark the night;
So take it …
Chorus 2
One day at a time,
[Oo, just one day yeah]
One step closer to Hea----ven;
With love as our guide,
Each mountain we'll climb ,
One day at a time.

[Just take it one day , one day ]
Verse 2
Sometimes a day seems so long ,
When the heart's no longer brave,
And the battle's so strong.
Even the sun sinks at night ,
[Don't de-spa-i-air-air ooo, ooo, ooo ooo, ooo, ooo]
But it rises in the morning
With a glorious light.
You gotta take it …
Chorus 1
One day,
Just one day
One step closer to Hea--ven;
With love as our guide,
Each mountain we'll climb ,
One day at a time.
Bridge
Where God's finger points,
There His hand will make a way;
He will never [no never] lead us down a path that's not been taken.
Don't worry 'bout to--morrow,
And all of its cares.
[ooo, ooo, ooo, ooo all of its care]
And even when we fall, my love,
His loving arms will always, always be there.
Solo

Chorus 3
One day at a time,
One step closer, a little clo--ser to Hea--ven
Though sometimes we'll slide,
[His love will abide.]
With lo--ve as our gui--de,
[On wings we will ride,]
Each mountain we'll climb.
Ending

Just take it
One day at a time.
