STEP BY STEP (THE PREACHER’S WIFE, 1996)

“That man is so oily, you could fry chicken on his smile.”

- Marguerite Coleman

The upbeat tune Step By Step as opposed to the slow I Believe In You And Me, was sung by singer and the movie's star herself Whitney Houston. A catchy song from the remake of the classic The Bishop's Wife.


STEP BY STEP
sung by: Whitney Houston

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 (you know I'm taking it), bit by bit (bit by bit, come move)

Stone by stone (yeah), brick by brick (brick by brick by brick by brick mmm...)

Step by step (step by step uh-huh), day by day (day by day-ee)

Mile by mile (ooh), go your own way

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

I'm taking it step by step (ohohoh), bit by bit (bit by bit come move)

Stone by stone (stone by stone yeah), brick by brick (brick by brick by brick by brick)

Step by step (I'm gonna take it now),day by day (day by day-ee)

Mile by mile (ooh), go your own way!

(C'mon baby got to keep moving), 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)....

HAPPY EASTER!
