New Day
by Ian Sharp

Album: The Longing

Today is the new day
Since they lifted You up on the tree
And now Your light rises
Rises in me
So I'll lift You higher
As I die to the world
To pursue this solitary desire
Tasting the goodness of God

No plans are needed
But obedience
No hope deferred now
You're my fulness, Oh God
No more condemnation
But the sweetest of sounds
Of all accusations
As they fall to the ground

Today is the new day
Since they lifted You up on the cross
And now Your light rises
Making a Way for all of us
Oh, what a myst'ry
Only grace let me see
How the curses that fell upon You
Can never fall upon me

The voice of my King in my ear Saying, "Love Me today-
Cast your cares here upon Me, And then here with Me stay.
Oh, come away to a place I can love you deeper still
Come away, seek My face And I'll give you the world-
I'll give you Myself."
