How many years has it been, dear Lord Since the day I believed and made You my Savior I know You have cared for me every day And given to me unmerited favor And I have so much that I am thankful for Oh, everyday, I want to be with You more And I am one step closer now than yesterday
Day after day, I have seen Your love In so many ways on so many faces And, Lord, I have watched as Your love has grown In so many hearts in so many places So I'll keep doin' what You want me to 'Cause, Lord, I know You're gonna come back soon And I am one step closer now than yesterday
We'll always be together And You will teach me how to be like You (Just like You)
Time after time I have let You down But You are so kind, You always forgive me And when I am weak, You are always there To strengthen my soul, new courage You give me And I can't wait until the day I see Your children changed to immortality And I am one step closer now than yesterday Yesterday, yesterday, mm-hmm Yesterday, yesterday
