New Song

Far-off hymns and funeral marches sound the same again
My ears are worn and weary strangers in a strange land
and I need a new song. I need a new song

And all I am is breath and vapor and shadow
And all I have is what I need and this I know
I need a new song
I need a new song

Waiting in the night for you. Burning in the sky for you, you

There's an aching in my body, within my lungs
This web of bones around my heart is coming undone
'cause I, I need a new song. I need a new song

I'm waiting in the night for you, burning in the sky for you, you
Waiting in the night for you, I'm burning in the sky for you

Words are failing, my melodies falter;
my voice is breaking; my heart is burning

Because blessing and honor, glory and power, praise and worship, They belong to you

I need a new, I need a new,
I need a new, I need a new,
I need a new so
I sing a new song

I need a new, I need a new,
I need a new, I need a new
I need a new so
I sing a new song

I need a new, I need a new,
I need a new, I need a new,
I need a new so
I sing a new song

Far-off hymns and funeral marches
All I am is breath and vapor and shadow
All I have is what I need and this I know
