Story Behind The Song
RL wanted to write a song to tie in the anger, frustration, love and passion of her debut album, 'New Day'...and she wanted it to include the essence of her calling.
Song Description
We are blessed as humans with the gift of free-will. We are allowed to choose
to be a positive influence on ourselves and others. Sometimes family issues,
loss of loved ones and personal emotional trauma, etc. can put a damper on our
attitude towards life and can make us question our very existence. But, God has
given us the unchangeable gift of a New Day...the blessed sunrise that symbolizes
the birth of a new light, new ideas, new love, forgiveness and change. Thank you God.
Thank you God. Thank you God.

Lyrics
"New Day"
© Copyright 2005 Rachel Lynn Sebastian
Exhilarating, worth the waiting,
no words for relating this good thang.
I see butterflies and endless skies,
and I know all to well it's a New Day.
Chorus
It's a New Day, everybody say,
"Hey, Hey, Hey...it's gonna be O.K."
Today, a mother mourns;
today, she cries in scorn.
Today, a child is born.
Where there is heartache,
there is happiness and healing.
Today, there's prejudice and ignorance.
Today, you have the chance
to teach your children tolerance;
for it's a New Day.
