The Porter’s Gate
Day by Day
[Verse 1]
Server, you remind us of our Savior's bowl and towel
Teacher, you are raising up a child to be kind
Lawyer, give us hope that justice one day will surround us
[Chorus 1]
May God's kingdom come
On earth, His will be done
[Verse 2]
Farmer, you are working for a table full of bounty
Painter, with each color you are teaching us to see
Nurse, yours are the healing hands that touch the poor and broken
[Chorus 2]
May God's kingdom come
On earth, His will be done
Lord, be close to us
Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, please put Your hand on us
Day by day
[Verse 3]
Carpenter, you frame a house for those who need protection
Laborer, you lift a heavy burden for the weak
Leaders, build a city that all children may rejoice in
[Chorus 3]
May God's kingdom come
On earth, His will be done
Lord, be close to us
Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, please put Your hand on us
Day by day
Lord, be close to us
Lord, have mercy on us
Lord, please put Your hand on us
Day by day
