For surely it will come, You know it won’t be long,
God’s promise won’t delay, You’ll see a brighter day
Verse I
You may be mourning now but God has said
He’ll turn it around and you will dance again
You wonder if there is hope here after
When He already gave you joy and laughter
In time sorrow you feel so alone
But God has a purpose He is still on the throne
Think of the last time when your night was so long
God stepped in and gave a brand new song
Chorus
A Brand New Day, New Season, New Joy, Look to God’s Faithfulness
A Brand New Day, New Mercies, New Hope, Look to God’s Faithfulness

A Brand New Day, with Deliverance, with Healing, Look to God’s Faithfulness
Verse II
Every trial, every test has a reason, oh, it’s only here but for a season
It’s not happening to you by chance, God controls every circumstance
It has come to give you hope and faith, and to build you up with God’s strength
It’s here to bring victory today, trust in Jesus and you can surely say

Forgetting hose things, which are behind
Reach forth to that which is before me
Press toward the goal to win the prize
The upward call of God in Jesus Christ

Verse I
Overlooked and misunderstood
They said I was no good
Yes I, I was the one who was left behind
But empty handed and with nothing to prove
Lord I called on You
And You came to me
Yes You came to my rescue
CHORUS
Jesus You saved me
Freed me
You said I’ll live again
Jesus You touched me
Transformed me
And now You call me friend
There’s no greater honor but to love You
There’s no greater honor but to serve You
There’s no greater honor but to live for You
I live today and it’s all because of You
Yes I live today and it’s all because of You
Verse II
Trapped and alone, yes I was so afraid
To live this dream that You gave me
Yes I, I placed my dreams upon the shelf
But empty handed and with nothing to prove
Lord I called on You
And You came to me
Yes You came to my rescue
Bridge
Yes You are the reason that I live
You are the song that I sing
I give all my worship Lord to You
Yes You are breath and life to me
