“NEW DAY DAWNING” PROJECT
WHEN THE MORNING BREAKS
V1:
Though the battle rages long and on into the night
There's a hope to help us cope, we'll not give up the fight
Darkness and despair will no longer have to bear
When the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair
Chorus:
When the morning breaks, eternal bright and fair
All the soldiers of the cross, will gather over there
All our sorrows will be gone, as the night gives way to dawn
When the morning breaks eternal bright and fair
V2:
No more stormy mornings no more clouds up in the sky
No more fears and no more tears will ever dim our eyes
What a joy will come when we see the risen Son
We'll stand and shout, praise God the victory's won

HE LEFT IT ALL
V1:
He didn't bring an army to help Him on His way
He didn't bring an angel to praise him night and day
He didn't bring one piece of gold to buy some food to eat
Instead, He turned and laid it all, at His father's feet
Chorus:
He left it all, to rescue me, He left it all, to die on Calvary
He left it all, not one comfort did He bring
Not His robe, not His crown, Not ten thousand bowing downing
Not one piece of jasper wall, He left it all
V2:
This man they're crucifying, He says He is a king,
But judging from the clothes He wears, He doesn't own one thing
But little did they know that day, As His blood came streaming down
He owned the sun, the stars and the moon, He even owned the ground
Rodney Griffin / Songs of Greater Vision / BMI
A GREATER YES
V1:
It starts with a desire, planted deep within your heart
You pray in faith, and wait for God to move
Time passes and you wonder
Did He hear me when I called?
Should I even have prayed that prayer at all
Chorus:
You never pray a prayer, your Father will not answer
He can't ignore His child's earnest request
While you're waiting and believing
For what you thought was best
Trust God if He says no….. You're still Blessed
There must be a greater yes
V2:
There comes a time when child-like faith
Must graduate to trust
Trials come and you're convinced you're on your own
But the teacher's often silent
During the hardest test
But He'll answer when It's time with what is best
Bridge:
Sometimes God will answer - just like we prayed
Then other times what's on His mind
Is a better plan, a another way, a greater yes

NEW DAY DAWNING
V1:
I'm gonna sit by the crystal river,
Dangle my feet in the cool clear blue
I'm gonna sit with the saints and angels,
I'm gonna be there how about you
Chorus:
I'm gettin ready for a new day dawning,
I'm gettin ready for a brand new morning
Packin' my bags for a heavenly journey,
I can't wait to be there, no I can't wait to be there
V2:
I've got a lot of old friends and loved ones,
Some already have gone before
Hand in hand we'll tour that city,
Then we'll kneel at the feet of our Lord

NEVERTHELESS
V1:
Broken and battered on life's angry sea,
Desperate and dying in sin's misery
I was hopeless and helpless to merit God's grace
Unworthy, unholy with judgment to pay
Chorus:
Nevertheless, Christ loved me,
Nevertheless, He died in my place
He traded my failures for His righteousness,
And bought my salvation, nevertheless
V2:
Jesus, Jehovah the King of all kings,
Master and maker of everything
He is sinless and spotless the Unblemished One
He knew I was nothing, lost and undone

THANK YOU SAYS IT BEST
V1:
As I count my many blessings Lord
And name them one by one, I am amazed
I feel so undeserving of the love, you bestow on me each day
My heart is overflowing with many things I wish I could express
Though my gratitude inside I can't describe
Thank you says it best
Chorus:
Thank you for the price you paid on Calvary
For a sinner such as I
Thanks for every time that you spoke peace,
When my storm was raging high
Lord, I'll never understand just why you love me,
And why I am so blessed
When my words have failed me Lord I find,
Thank you says it best
V2:
I can't forget the times that you've shown mercy
When I knew I had done wrong
And I remember how you carried me, when I just could not go on
And I recall how faithful you have been, in my hour of distress
Though I can't fully convey my gratefulness,
Thank you says it best

HEAVEN’S LAMB
V1:
I was a pilgrim walking thru a dusty barren land
Searching for the way that leads home
And through my hesitation and my desperation
I realized my soul was lost
Then I surrendered my will and my heart
Salvation came to me by the way of the cross
Chorus:
There is a road leading to Golgatha's Hill
Where grace walked from that battlefield Victorious
And the blood still flows
Redemption through the Savior's hand
Mercy's only way to fallen man
Was Heaven's Lamb
V2:
You may be burdened
by a sinful past that holds you down
it's chained around your heart and hope
You walk through life alone
Draggin all the sin you've known
You can't escape the cold and dark
Jesus is waiting with healing in His arms
He can save you now no matter where you are
Monty Lane Allen / Kenzie Gray Music/BMI
WHEN I RESTED IN THE LORD
V1:
Trying to cope with the pressures of life
Left me with weary days and sleepless nights
I searched for the answer, not knowing the question
I was running fast, but in the wrong direction
In desperation, I fell to my knees
And surrendered to the voice calling come unto me
Chorus:
My soul found peace when I rested in the Lord
I drank from the fountain, where living water poured
His mercy covered me and His grace made me restored
My soul found peace when I rested in the Lord
V1:
Just like the woman Jesus met at the well
My past was cluttered with the places I'd failed
And justice for me would be His condemnation
Instead, He offered me the way of salvation
I traded the ruins of a wasted life,
For a yoke that is easy and a burden that's light

I WONDER IF YOU KNOW
V1:
I wonder if he knew, when he sailed away from Troas
This trip of his would someday change the world,
I wonder if he knew that one day he'd be known as
The apostle who left it all to serve the Lord,
I wonder if Paul knew, with every shipwreck and each trial
As he wrote the details down for all to see,
Every sacred line would become the Holy Bible
Be passed on down till it found it's way to me.
Chorus:
I wonder if he knew how important he was
To fulfill the Father's plan, To get the gospel to us
And I wonder if he knew, There'd be millions that would follow
If he would just preach to the few, I wonder if he knew
V2:
I wonder if you know when you rose up from your pillow
The Father knew the lives you'd touch today,
I wonder if you know through eyes filled with sorrow
Their watching you though they don't know your name,
I wonder if you know the footprints you are leaving
May be the steps they'll follow to the thrown,
And just behind their smile, there's a broken heart that's grieving
In search of lasting peace to call their own.
Chorus:
I wonder if you know how important you are
To fulfill the Father's plan to get the gospel to all
And I wonder if you know, they'll be many that will follow
If you will just share as you go; I wonder if you know
Jesus waits in Heaven looking to the earth below
There's something he is saying, something he wants you to know
To know…
He says… I want you to know how important you are
To fulfill the Father's plan to get the gospel to all
And I want you to know they'll be many that will follow
If you will just share as you go
I want you to know, I want you to know
Jesus wants you to know

GRAND OPENING
V1
Heaven's full of brand new mansions, Jesus went to prepare
And He's promised when He's finished, We could move right in up there
The final touches have been made, The banner's hoist to wave
Any day the clouds will roll back, The church will walk right through the gate
Chorus:
Grand Opening Soon - Welcome one and all
From high upon the housetops inside the grave they'll hear the call
To our brand new relocation, Beyond the stars and the moon
We'll rise to the occasion of that Grand Opening Soon
V2:
The tomb received His body, When the Father hid His face
Hell rejoiced in triumph, As the stone was rolled in place
But life wasn't out of business, Only temporarily closed
Heaven had Grand Opening on the third day when he arose

THANK GOD FOR GRACE
V1:
I have seen the ruined lives of millions bound by sin
I have seen those in the ghetto, with a bottle in their hand
Yet I know, this could be me, I could in that same place
But I'm washed and redeemed, I thank God for grace
Chorus:
Unworthy of mercy, yet I'm free and saved
Unworthy of royal blood, that flows through my veins
If not for Calvary, where would I be today
I was blind now I see, I thank God for grace
V2:
Nothing good I have done, to deserve this grace I found
I was lost as could be, when His hand reached way down
Where once I had nothing, I now have everything
Oh, I thank God for grace, that saved a wretch like me
Bridge:
Grace, grace, God's grace
Grace that is greater than all my sin
Sandy Blythe / Jeff Whisnant Music / BMI
HE KNOWS MY NAME
V1:
There have been times when often I wondered
As I walk this narrow way
Could the Lord hear me, would He answer
Did He even know my name
But I discovered the moment I called Him
He's been faithful, always true
The answer I need is ever awaiting
By His hand He leads me through
Chorus:
He knows my name and he sees my every need
He picks me up, praise the Lord he hears my plea
He is my hope, and the rock on which I stand
He knows my name and He holds my hand
V2:
As a weary pilgrim during this journey
I have been in need of strength
So I call the Master who's been faithful
To supply what e're I need
There's never a moment He's too busy
And won't help me when I pray
He is always waiting, ready and able
Praise the Lord, He knows my name
