One day at a time We can learn to leave the past behind One day at a time We can look the future in the eye One day at a time We can learn to live
The gates of the garden are open wide: And the trusting 70 thousand will enter Of them without reckoning
One day at a time We can learn to leave our fears behind One day at a time We can stare our hopes in the eye One day at a time We can learn to live
And if you meet the evening Don’t wait for the Sun to rise
One day at a time We can leave all treasures behind One day at a time We can watch the clocks unwind One day at a time A child is born into this world eyes blind But one day he will find, his sight, and glimpse Another kind of Light To live by, one day One day at a time We can put machines behind One day at a time We can learn how birds survive One day at a time We can learn to fly
