Whitney Houston – Step by Step

Music, prompts

A lovely song by Whitney Houston

Lyrics;

Well there’s a bridge and there’s a river that I still must cross
As I’m going on my journey
Oh, I might be lost

And there’s a road I have to follow, a place I have to go
Well no-one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I’ll know
‘Cause I’m taking it

Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)

And this old road is rough and ruined
So many dangers along the way
So many burdens might fall upon me
So many troubles that I have to face

Oh, but I won’t let my spirit fail me
Oh, I won’t let my spirit go
Until I get to my destination
I’m gonna take it slowly ’cause I’m making it mine

Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)

Say it, baby, don’t give up
You got to hold on to what you got,
Oh, baby, don’t give up,
You got to keep on moving on don’t stop (yeah yeah).
I know you’re hurting, and I know you’re blue,
I know you’re hurting but don’t let the bad things get to you.

Step by step, bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (oh, yeah)
Step by step, day by day, mile by mile (ooh, ooh, ooh)

,
I’m taking it step by step), bit by bit,
Stone by stone (yeah, stone by stone), brick by brick
C’mon baby,
Step by step keep on moving, day by day (day by day-ee),
Mile by mile by mile by mile, go your own way,
C’mon baby got to keep moving, bit by bit (bit by bit, bit by bit)

  3. With any problems/concerns we seem to want an instant solution. Or perhaps think there is only 1 solution …. mine!
    Step by step might mean minute by minute thinking. Or perhaps week by week or more time planning.
    I like the slow pace of the song reminding us to slow down.

  4. Your music choices are always really good, Sadje. I didn’t know this song, but anything that Whitney sings is always fantastic. This matches the Wilson Phillips song ‘Hold On’ really good as it says step by step which is like one day at a time.
