You are the new day

You are the new day, new day
You are the new day.

I will love you more than me
and more than yesterday
If you can but prove to me
you are the new day

Send the sun in time for dawn
Let the birds all hail the morning
Love of life will urge me say
you are the new day

When I lay me down at night
knowing we must pay
Thoughts occur that this night might
stay yesterday

Thoughts that we as humans small
could slow worlds and end it all
lie around me where they fall
before the new day

One more day when time is running out
for everyone
Like a breath I knew would come I reach for
the new day

Hope is my philosophy
Just needs days in which to be
Love of life means hope for me
Born on the new day

You are the new day.

John David

Every time I see a sunrise I think of this song, we have sung it many times in chorus and each time it is more beautiful.
I have blipped the view out my office window many times so I didn't want to be too repetitive however I love the sun coming up behind the trees. A few minutes later it was too bright
Here is a recording. I do not know this chorus but it is a pretty good rendition of this song. Close your eyes.
You Are the New Day
