Song Lyrics

"Every New Day"

by Five Iron Frenzy
Album: The End Is Here (Disc 2)

Ha ha

When I was young
The smallest trick of light
Could catch, my eye
Then life
Was new and every new day I thought that I could fly

I believed in what I hoped for
And I hoped in things unseen
I had wings and dreams could soar
I just don't feel like flying anymore
When the stars threw down their spears
Watered heaven, with their t-ears
Before, words were spoken
Before eternit-y

~Chorus~
Dear Father, I need You
Your strength my heart to mend
I want to, fly higher
Every new day ag-ain

When I was small
The furthest I could reach
Was not so high
Then I
Thought the world was so much smaller
Feeling I could fly

Through distant deeps and skies
Behind infinit-y
Below, the face of heaven
He stoops, to create me

~Chorus~

You, are not, alone
(3X)
You are never alone

Man versus himself
Man versus machine
Man versus the world
Mankind versus me
The struggles go on
The wisdom I lack
The burdens keep pilling
Up on my back
So hard to breathe
To take the next step
The mountain is high
I wait in the depths
Yearning for grace
And hoping for peace
Dear, God increase

H-ealing hands, of God have mercy on our lives
Unclean souls, once ag-ain
J-esus Christ, light of the world
Burning bright
W-ith-in our hearts fore-ver
Fr-eedom, means love
Without condition
W-ithout a beginning or an e-nd
H-ere's, my heart
Let it be fore-ver Yours
Only You can make, every new day seem so new

Ha-lelujah
Ha-lel-ujah
Ha-le-luj-ah
Ha-le-luj-ah
Halelujah
Ha-lel-uj-ah

(Crowd Cheering A Cappella)
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

T'was Grace that taught...
my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear...
the hour I first believed.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

(band joins in)

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

(praying softly)
Oh God, some of us wouldn't know
the grace that song talks unless it
was for for Five Iron. Thank you for them
and thank you for them showing us
that grace and that love. All of us
have been blessed by them, that's why
we're here, father. God, I know that
so many other people are going to be
blessed, and so many people younger than
us, and maybe even the next generation, God.
Thank you so much for them, and their willingness
to be your servants, and your vessel, God.

(speaking)
Thank you

The Yogalalas, there was a Yogalalas
Sioux chief, who was named sitting bull.
Before the battle of little big horn, he
turned to some of his, some of his chiefs
and said "today is a good day to die."

Today is a good day to die. In the Bible
there is a story of a prophet Elijah. At
the end of his, his life, he, he takes off
his cloak and hands it down to
the person he has taught his whole life,
Elisha. He gives him his cloak, with
a blessing, to carry twice, twice the
grace he has been given, twice the
faith, that he would do twice as much.

So tonight, this is what is happening to you,
we're passing this mantle. Do good things with
it. Remember that God loves you, remember
that all he requires of you is to love Him
with all your heart and to love others as
yourself.

We're gonna sing one more song and then uh,
you guys can go home, hopefully see some of
you tomorrow, but we'll see you around one
day anyway.

(speaking)
This might seem stupid, but it's snowing
outside.

[cheering]

(speaking)
So I'm gonna sing this song

(singing A Cappella)
Silent Night
(crowd Joins in)
holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

(whispered)
one more time

(singing)
holy night
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

(speaking)
God Speed

[Cheering]
