I met a beautiful young girl on a hay ride on Hallelujah night. She began telling me her story. She was living in a girls home. My heart was so heavy for her as she narrated the tragic story of her life. I went home that night praying for her. I woke up the next morning with a new song on my heart for her. This song birthed as I tried to give her the good news of hope for a Brighter Day!
Lyrics
A Brighter Day
Chorus
Brighter Day (4 X)
Verse 1
Are you feeling down? Like no one’s been around.
Are you feeling bad? Life’s really making you mad!
Do you feel all alone? Like you have no place to call your own.
Well, it’s time to stop singing the blues.
Verse 2
Are you feeling lost? Like life’s worth no cost.
Are you giving up hope? Like you really just can’t cope.
Have you lost all of your faith? Like there’s no one to trust in this place.
Well, it’s time to stop singing the blues.
Verse 3
Are you feeling blue? Life’s getting the best of you.
Are you carrying shame? The whole world is to blame.
Can you forgive those? Who violated and imposed
Well, it’s time to stop singing the blues.
Bridge
There is a way for a brighter day. For a light to shine in disarray.
Jesus gave His life to set you free from all of life’s pain and misery.
Confess the Lord as your Savior and your King.
Lay down at the cross everything. Cast all your burdens down at His feet.
He loves you so much; He wants to set you free.
Jesus is that way for a Brighter Day!
