Day by Day


When I was in high school attending youth retreats, our retreat leader used to play a mix of music during the morning while we were eating and getting started.  I still remember this mix as being uplifting and relaxing, while motivating me to participate in the day.  One of the songs in this mix was “Day by Day.”  The song was from Godspell, but it is based on an ancient prayer.  The words of the chorus are:
     Day by Day
     Day by Day
     Oh, Dear Lord, these things I pray:
     To Know Thee more Clearly
     To Love Thee more Dearly
     To Follow Thee more Nearly
     Day by Day

It is still a good prayer.
