Story behind the song
Hymn written for Persian culture
Lyrics
Verse 1:
The Lord has said, Forget things past
Consider these no more
For He has saved the best for last
And never seen before
Chorus: Something New, Something New
There's something new to see
Besides New Heavens and New earth
By faith in Christ, there is a second birth
and someone new to be
Verse 2:
There's transformation for our lives
That we'd proclaim His praise
Though broken once, we're made alive
To follow in His ways
Chorus
Verse 3:
The Lord said, "Do you not see it"?
What I have already begun!
Do you not perceive it?
For something new has come
Verse 4:
In wilderness He speaks the word
And desert rivers stream
He is the way and truth and life
He says, Come follow Me.
