Forever Made New by Richard Shekari from Abuja, Fct Nigeria

forever made new

chorus:
you’re my tomorrow, my joy and hope—o lord, you make me new.
you took away my sorrow and bore the price upon the cross.

jesus, what an honour it is to celebrate you—you make me feel brand new.
you took away my sorrow and bore the price upon the cross.

verse 1:
when the day has passed away and i must face the night,
i shall not fear, for i know you’re by my side.

when the rivers all run dry and the desert swallows the forest,
i shall not fear, for i know you’re by my side. *chorus*

verse 2:
when they rose against me in the night with tongues of wicked flame,
lord, you shielded me—just as you did upon the cross.

when they devised their schemes in the dark before their fallen gods,
lord, you wrapped me in the brilliance of your light. *chorus*

outro:
o most high, forever we shall dance and sing your praise.
lord, you reign forever—receive our sacrifice of praise.
