[Intro: Michael Tait]
Duh duh-duh-duh-duh
Yea, he knows the way home
Duh duh-duh-duh-duh
He knows the way

[Verse 1: TobyMac]
I live a simple life, I take a day at a time
I spend my mornings with God before I hit the grind
The subtleties o' darkness never cease to amaze
As a physical world creates a spiritual haze

[Pre-Chorus 1: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Blinded by distractions
Lost in matter-less affairs
Reachin' through the darkness
Trustin' You will meet me there

[Chorus: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max, TobyMac, TobyMac, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Day by day (Day by day)
Day by day (Day by day)
Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray (One, two, three)
To see Thee more clearly (Day by day)
To love Thee more dearly (Day by day)
To follow Thee more nearly (I got to take it…)
Day by day
[Post-Chorus: Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Duh duh-duh-duh-duh
He knows the way home
Duh duh-duh-duh-duh
You cruise around the corner
He knows the way
You watch your back

[Verse 2: Kevin Max, Kevin Max & TobyMac]
You sweep your feet down alley streets
Sometimes you creep, I never see you comin'
Monday, man, you're on my back
Like a knapsack strapped with my heavy burden, no

[Pre-Chorus 2: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max, TobyMac]
You cannot condemn me
I won't buy your bag of goods
You got nothin' for me
Anyway, that's why I pray (Come on)

[Chorus: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max, TobyMac, TobyMac, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Day by day (Day by day)
Day by day (Day by day)
Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray (One, two, three)
To see Thee more clearly (Day by day)
To love Thee more dearly (Day by day)
To follow Thee more nearly (We got to take it…)
Day by day
[Break: TobyMac]
These three things
I do pray
Day by day

[Bridge: Michael Tait & Kevin Max, TobyMac]
Day by day by day by day (These three things)
Day by day by day by day (I do pray)
Day by day by day by day by day (Day by day, day by day, day by day)
Day by day by day by day (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Day by day by day by day (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Day by day by day by day by day (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's one step at a time!

[Chorus: Michael Tait, Michael Tait & Kevin Max, TobyMac, TobyMac, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
Day by day (Day by day)
Day by day (Day by day)
Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray (One, two, three)
To see Thee more clearly (Day by day)
To love Thee more dearly (Day by day)
To follow Thee more nearly (We got to take it…)
Day by day

[Outro: Kevin Max, Michael Tait & TobyMac, Michael Tait & Kevin Max]
As you walk (Monday!)
Day by day
Day by day (Tuesday!)
Day by day
Go to God and pray (Wednesday!)
Day by day
"I'm gonna go Your way" (Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, yo!)
Day by day
You know you gotta pray
See Thee more clearly
Every day
Love Thee more dearly
Ooh, oh yeah
Follow Thee more nearly
I'm gonna go your way
Does anybody hear me?
Day by day by day by day (Come on!)
Day by day by day by day (Come on!)
Day by day by day by day by day
That is what I'm sayin', yo! (One day at a time)
