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
