[RafaelAlonzoRoque]

You are the new day
You are the new day
I will love you more than me
And more than yesterday
If you can but prove to me
You are the new day
Send the sun in time for dawn
Let the birds all hail the morning
Love of life will urge me say
You are the new day
When I lay me down at night
Knowing we must pay
Thoughts occur that this night might
Stay yesterday
Thoughts that we as humans small
Could slow worlds and end it all
Lie around me where they fall
Before the new day
One more day when time is running out
For everyone
Like a breath I knew would come I reach for
The new day
Hope is my philosophy
Just needs days in which to be
Love of life means hope for me
Borne on a new day
You are the new day

Perfection. Phrasing, diction, vowels, blending, emotion without losing technique. Voices melt into one. Amazing work.

I am SO HAPPY that my teacher chose this song for our choir to sing.

[jaliciah]

Amazing work.. especially loved the fact that everyone is not breathing with their shoulders lol

[akhonankumanda]

Great sound and the interpretation is on another level of greatness

I've never heard it done better. Outstanding blend and balance and the dynamic levels are perfection.

Beautifil. I was also in a gospel choir and this was my favorite

I remember this from my childhood.. Obviously not this version. Took me ages to find it again!

Outstanding arrangement and performance.
Good on you all.

Nice choir, but I don't get the interpretation. Could have more tender moments, a little bit stiff
