Lyrics
[Chorus]
Why worry about the bad old days
Why worry about the past
Somebody didn't see this day
So God first
Let praise come first
[Verse]
Lord thank you for this brand new day
That's all I need to try again
Another day
Another chance
Another dance
Oh, thank you for this brand new day
That's all I need to try again
Another day
Another chance
[Verse]
I woke up feeling stronger
Today I'm feeling younger
Than yesterday
May your grace be with me longer
Everyday I'm pushing harder
Don't wanna waste a day
[Chorus]
Every sunrise, Lord, I thank you
For the love and life you gave me
Every sunrise, Lord, I thank you
Your amazing grace has saved me
[Verse]
Lord thank you for this brand new day
That's all I need to try again
Another day
Another chance
Another dance
Oh, thank you for this brand new day
That's all I need to try again
Another day
Another chance
[Chorus]
Why worry about the bad old days
Why worry about the past
Somebody didn't see this day
So God first
Let praise come first

Meaning & Inspiration
“Another Day” is a song of gratitude for renewed life and another opportunity to begin again. Its recurring sunrise image turns an ordinary morning into a reason for praise, while the contrast between past troubles and the present day keeps the focus on hope rather than regret. The repeated phrases about another chance and another dance give the song a buoyant sense of forward movement.
The lyrics place God first and credit divine love and grace for both life and salvation. Their prayer that grace will remain near accompanies a commitment not to waste the day. This outlook closely reflects biblical passages that celebrate each day as God’s gift and describe mercy as new every morning. Rather than denying hardship, the song answers it with thanksgiving, perseverance, and confidence that a fresh day creates room to try again.
