[F]
[Bb]
I'm only human, I'm just [F] a man.
Help me to believe in what I can be, [Cm] and [Bb] all that I am.
Show me the stairway that I have [Eb] to climb.
Lord, for [Bb] my sake, teach me [F] to take one [Bb] day at a time.
One day [Eb] at a time, sweet Jesus, that's all I'm asking [Bb] of you.
Give me [F] the strength to do every day what I [Bb] have to do.
[C]
[Eb] Yesterday's gone, sweet Jesus, and tomorrow may never [Bb] be [Eb] mine.
So for [F] my sake, teach me to take one [C] day [Bb] at a time.
Do you remember when you walked [F] among men?
Well, Jesus, you know, if you're looking below, it's worse [Bb] now than then.
[F] Pushing [Bb]
and shoving, crowding [Eb] my mind.
So for [Bb] my sake, teach me [F] to take one [Bb] day at a time.
One day [Eb] at a time, sweet Jesus, that's all I'm asking [Bb] of you.
Give me [F] the strength to do every day what I [Bb] have to do.
[D]
[Eb] Yesterday's gone, sweet Jesus, and tomorrow may never [Bb] be mine.
So for [F] my sake, [Cm] teach me to take one day at [Bb] a time.
Yes, for just [F] my sake, teach me to take one day at [Bb] a time.
