Spawn a New Day

Spawn A New Day

What does encourage and then spawn?
Beginning and breaking of new dawn;
Which way will a river run and why;
God don't let your love pass me by.

Treat me kindly and secure my soul;
Make mine and everyone's all whole;
Pick up pieces and put back in place;
Wipe off the tears from our each face.

Must listen to God not missing a word;
Make sure daily he has been heard;
While in battle being under attack;
Be sure to bring all our soldiers back.

Another new year has come to stay;
Yes mother let us play if you may,
Stop light and also red and green;
Let us on You God be able to lean.
