Rich Mullins - Step By Step Lyrics

Step By Step is a compact prayer of praise, seeking, and daily obedience. The opening declaration identifies God personally and promises continual praise. From there, the lyric moves into the quiet discipline of seeking God in the morning and learning his ways. The repetition keeps the focus on consistency rather than a single dramatic moment.\n\nThe image of being led step by step closely aligns with the psalmist's prayer to be taught God's path and guided by his truth. It also recalls the biblical wisdom that a person's path is directed by the Lord. Rather than promising a life without uncertainty, the song emphasizes faithful dependence: God leads, and the worshiper seeks to follow all the days of life. Its plain language and recurring lines support that daily focus, turning the central promise into a steady confession of trust and discipleship.
