[Verse 1]
Goodbye yesterday
I’m living in the light of a new day
I won’t waste another minute In my old ways
Praise the Lord I’ve been born again
[Chorus]
Again and again and again and again
You rescued me out Of the mess I was in
Traded my sorrow for something to sing
Now I’m dancing on the grave That I once lived in
[Verse 1]
Goodbye yesterday
I’m living in the light of a new day

Goodbye yesterday
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
I’ve got resurrection in my veins
Praise the Lord I’ve been born
[Pre-chorus]
Again and and again and again
You rescued me out of the mess I was in
Traded my sorrow for something to sing
I’m dancing on the grave that I once lived in
[Bridge]
I have decided
To follow Jesus
The world behind
The cross before
And I won’t turn back
