Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
I've been looking at my face in the mirror
Full of loss, full of doubt, full of fear
These days got more questions than answers
Have I wasted all of my chances
Thinking 'bout my kids and my wife
Are we all gonna be alright
I can't see, I don't know where I'm going
But God help me keep my hands open
One day one day at a time
It's taken all of my life
I'm learning to trust You Lord
Help me to trust You
When it feels like I'm flying blind
I feel Your hand upon mine
I'm learning to trust You Lord
One day at a time
I should notice You've always been faithful
Never had reasons not to be grateful
I've spent too much time in the future
Missing right now ain't that peculiar
Every second and minute each hour
I can hear You a little bit louder
Start to find all the time that was stolen
God help me keep my eyes open
One day one day at a time
It's taken all of my life
I'm learning to trust You Lord
Help me to trust You
When it feels like I'm flying blind
I feel Your hand upon mine
I'm learning to trust You Lord
One day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
I'm learning to trust You Lord
One day at a time
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait
Watch it all slip on by
You're showing me the way, showing me the way
To trust in Your ways not mine
I don't wanna wait, I don't wanna wait
Watch it all slip on by
You're showing me the way, showing me the way
One day one day at a time
It's taken all of my life
I'm learning to trust You Lord
Help me to trust You
When it feels like I'm flying blind
I feel Your hand upon mine
I'm learning to trust You Lord
One day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
I'm learning to trust You Lord
One day at a time
