One day at a time,
We can learn to leave the past behind,
One day at a time,
We can look the future in the eye,
One day at a time,
We can learn to live,
The gates of the garden are open,
Wide and trusting,
70 thousand will enter,
Of them without reckoning,
One day at a time,
We can learn to leave our fears behind,
One day at a time,
We can stare our hopes in the eye,
One day at a time,
We can learn to live,
And if you meet the evening,
Don’t wait for the sun to rise,
One day at a time,
We can leave all treasures behind,
One day at a time,
We can watch the clocks unwind,
One day at a time,
A child is born into this world,
Eyes blind,
One day he will find his sign,
And glimpse some other kind of life to live by,
One day,
One day at a time,
We can put machines behind,
One day at a time,
We can learn how birds survive,
One day at a time,
We can learn to fly,
