1
Once a sinner, now I’m saved;
Still, I lack in many ways.
Lord, it feels like nothing has changed.
Patient, yet I cannot wait;
Loving, yet not void of hate;
Lord, I don’t want to stay the same.
Thought I had to come up with my own solutions,
But You’re showing me the way to take.

Chorus:
I don’t have to know my complications;
I just need to grow in the Lord,
Enjoying Him day by day,
Pursuing Him with the saints,
Absorbing Him just as a branch would in the vine.
There’s no need for me to struggle and to strive;
Just to grow in life.

2
Eating Your word when I wake,
Nothing should get in the way;
Calling ceaselessly on Your name.
Meeting You with all the saints,
Feasting on Your boundless grace,
Praising as I call it a day.
I’ve let go of all religious regulations;
Found a new, enjoying way to take.

Lyrics:
(Part 1)
For we do not have a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all respects like us, yet without sin (yet without sin).

Whom having not seen you love (you love).

But unto you who fear My name (x2).

The love of God, and the grace of Christ, and fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you, be with you all (be with you all, be with you all).

(Part 2)
He gives power to the faint, and to those who have no vigour He multiplies strength.

Thus says Jehovah, heaven is My throne (heaven is My throne).

I’m so happy here with my Father dear.

Some, these days, would tell us that our Jesus is not food, that we only need to know about Him and do good. But we're glad to tell you, brothers, it's just not that way. Jesus is the bread of life, we eat Him every day. 

We are the church, ekklesia.

Remind me, Lord, the reason why I live and breathe. Remind me, Lord, that I'm a vessel for Your purpose.

God is rich in mercy because of His great love. He manifested this by sending His Son. 

The church is the building up of all God’s chosen and redeemed, regenerated, and transformed people.

What things were gains to me, these now I count as loss. Jesus has set me free from what I was.

Now from my heart comes a happy song. It’s just for you, Lord; there’s only one. J-E-S-U-S, I love You (I love You).

I love You, Jesus, deep down in my heart (x2). Talk about deep, deep, down, down, deep down in my heart.

Joy (x10).

(Part 3)
(Key change - D A Bm G)

I know not what awaits me, God kindly veils my eyes.

God hath not promised skies always blue, flower-strewn pathways all our lives through.

Drawn to the Cross which Thou has blest, with healing gifts for souls distrest. To find in Thee my life, my rest, Christ crucified, I come. 

Take time to behold Him, speak oft with thy Lord. Abide in Him always and feed on His Word.

Jesus, living Word.

It’s not a message that I’ve heard, not some points that I have learned, not a song or verse I know by heart.

I am the living bread, which came down out of heaven.

And he said to me, Drink of My river of water of life; drink of what truly satisfies. My supply will not fail you, and My river will carry you through, if you come to Me, your loving King, and drink.

O Jesus, Jesus, dearest Lord, forgive me if I say. 

I am one with Thee, Lord Jesus, one in spirit now with Thee. All Thyself I now possess, Lord; all Thou art now lives in me.

All in all forever, only Christ I'll sing. Everything is in Christ, and Christ is everything.

1. Lord, it seems
That I fail and fail again.
I see Your face,
But then the veils return again.
Emotion’s stirred, but there’s no change in me.
I’m living in my soul; I have to learn
A little more, each day, O Lord, to turn.

2. Lord, I know
That I’ve truly seen You, but
The vision fades;
I look away to other things.
Remind me, Lord, reveal Yourself to me,
That from my idols I would be set free.
A little more, each day, I want to see.

3. Lord, my mind
Is occupied with many things--
This thorny age,
With all of its anxieties.
My faith is weak; I’m caught up in my cares.
I need to learn to tell it all to You!
A little more, each day, my mind renew.

4. Lord, my will
Is resistant to Your touch.
Disarm me, Lord;
Don’t let me win against Your grace.
I turn my eyes and see Your patient love--
What can I do but stop and come to You?
A little more, each day, my will subdue.

5. Lord, I pray,
Make me desperate for You.
Keep drawing me
And training me to hear Your voice.
Lord, even though my progress is so slow,
You’re by my side; You will not let me go.
A little more, each day, I’d love You so.
A little more, each day, and I will grow.

A Little More, Each Day (Original)

1.
As the world rushes on,
I’m reminded of Thee.
Though time passes away,
There’s eternity in me.

Now nothing ’neath the sun,
But Thou and Thou alone,
Can satisfy my heart.
Things temp’ral will not do;
I’d things above pursue;
Eternal One, Thou art.

2.
Priceless ’tis, now I see,
To spend time seeking Thee.
Time is precious to me,
Limited in quantity.

Lord, I just want to spend
My time with only Thee,
For Thou art worthy Lord.
I’d every moment seize,
Not one spent without Thee,
But with my love, my Lord.

3.
How can I spend my time
That it’d be valuable,
Thousand-fold multiplied,
Ever our memorial?

I’d rather spend a day,
With Thee and with Thy saints,
Than thousand days away.
One thing, that do I seek,
To dwell within Thy house
Beholding Thee always.

4.
New beginning I ask.
All my heart, capture more;
All my time, spent with Thee;
All my days, on Thee outpoured.

The time, may I redeem,
From many wasted days,
From wand’ring aimlessly.
More time I cannot waste;
Thou long didst wait for me,
To turn my being to Thee.
