The long night’s over, the moon touched down
A thin blanket of dew is softenin’ the ground
Theres a cool breeze cuttin’ through the mornin’ mist
A fresh breath of air from the good Lord’s lips
Run to the window, gonna look and see
There’s a blackbird sittin’ in a dogwood tree
Singin’ Do Da Ditta Da, do da doo
Do da ditta da dee
Yeah It’s a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Put your feet on the floor, it’s no time to rest
The wolf’s in the den and the hog’s in the nest, yes
No more waiting on the promise land
We’re gonna build this mansion with our own two hands
Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done
Let the truth be heard, the Gospel be sung
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Oo child don’t hang your head
Child don’t hang your head
Wipe away your sleepy eyes
Wipe away your eyes
A story’s not been written yet
Though shadows fall there is hope every sunrise
Oh yeah
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Its a new day, a new day
Well is its a new Ooo Ooo day
Its a new day, its a new day
