This song was sung at the funeral of a very dear friend of mine, 15 years ago this month. I think about him often and this song helps me get through the day. The words aren't the same as what they sang that day or what you will find in your church hymnal but I copied them because they fit the times. You may want to look up a video of your favorite singer doing this song.
(One day at a time sweet Jesus)
I'm only human
I'm just a woman/man
Help me believe, 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
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' from You
Just give me the strength
To do every day
What I should do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
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
Jesus You know
If You're lookin' below
It's worse now than then
Cheatin' and stealin'
Violence and crime
So for my sake
Teach me to take
One day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus
That's all I'm askin' from You
Just give me the strength
To do every day
What I should do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus
Tomorrow may never be mine
Lord help me today
Show me the way
One day at a time...
