REJOICE AGAIN


Psalm 118:24
This is the day the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.
REJOICE AGAIN
A new day has dawned on me,
My soul knows well God's mercy;
Light colors another day and paints
the earth with shades of grace.
A new day has blessed my heart,
My soul knows well God's love;
Sunshine awakens another day
and bids my mind to wake.
A new day has touched my life,
My soul knows well God's joy;
Sonlight washes another day,
Rejoice again, again I say rejoice!

REJOICE AGAIN
A new day blesses my heart
My soul knows well God's endless love
Sunshine awakens another day
Filling my mind with waves of strength

A new day has dawned on me
My soul knows well God's effective mercy
Sonlight colors another day
Splashing the earth with shades of grace
A new day has touched my life
My soul knows well God's eternal joy
Sonlight washes over another night
Rejoice again, again I say rejoice!
