9. There’s a New Day Dawning

1 Go forth to serve, as Jesus went,
To minister to men;
A messenger from heaven sent,
To do His work again.

Refrain:
There’s a new day dawning,
There’s a new day dawning,
Then arise, O children of the light,
Arise and sing!
There’s a new day dawning,
There’s a new day dawning,
When the nations of the world shall worship
Christ the King.

2 Be loyal to God’s Holy Word,
Delivered to the saints;
Hold fast the truth that you have heard
Against the world’s complaints. [Refrain]

3 Seek Christ, His will, His sacrifice,
His blessed way to live;
Let self die out, Christ shall suffice,
To Him your spirit give. [Refrain]
