Some of My Favorite Songs – Religious Music

​When you’re having a bad day, nothing makes you feel better than a good song. I like happy ones, with a beat you can dance to. I’ve played around with the idea of doing a musical pick each week, but a bad day convinced me to start. I hope it helps you too. Here’s this week’s pick . . . 
​

DAY BY DAY
I sing the original words when I’m having a bad day. Here’s my version for this post . . . 
 
                Each day there are three things I pray
                      To see you clearly
                     To love you with my whole heart
                     To follow your words, each day.

 Here’s the 1972 version. It reached #13 on Billboard’s Hot 100. Link: https://youtu.be/P3PjfBQjJT8

Day By Day is from Godspell, an Off-Broadway musical from May of 1971. The show is written as a series of parables from the New Testament Gospel of Matthew.
​
You can see it on Disney channel. It’s on Kristen Bell’s show, Encore. Godspell is season 1, episode 7. Kristen reunited a high school cast from 21 years ago. They had a week to put it back together again. I love seeing the cast then, and now.
