Heritage Singers perform 'One Day at a Time,' a classic Christian song that expresses human frailty and dependence on God for daily strength. The lyrics ask Jesus for help to live one day at a time, acknowledging that yesterday is gone and tomorrow is uncertain. The song reflects on the challenges of life and the need for divine guidance to face each day's tasks. It encourages trust in God's provision for the present moment, drawing from the biblical principle of not worrying about tomorrow.

Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I'm only human, I'm just a man
Lord, Help me believe in what
I could be and all that I am
Show me the stairway,
I have to climb
Lord for my sake,
teach me to take
One day at a time

Chorus
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm asking from you
Just give me the strength
To do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
And tomorrow may never be mine
Lord help me today, show me the way
One day at a time

Do you remember,
when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know
if you're looking below
It's worse now, than then
There�s pushing and shouting,
That's crowed my mind
So for my sake,
teach me to take
One day at a time
