A New Song

play a new song
one that I've never heard
that will change me in an instant
one that will make a difference

I've confessed all the facts
play a new song
make a stranger of my past
sorry, so sorry for being human

I've heard it all
that which used to go to my heart
has gone to my head
Spiritless to any call

No, lion, no lamb
I don't know who I am
Who said I wanted to be free?
Don't listen to them, Please

Make up a new song for God
play a new song for Him
so I may hear
and call Him "Dear"

Make up a new song
for Him and me
one that never wears thin
play a new song for Him

Play a new song, play a new song... (fade out)


1989
