Story behind the song
This was one of my favorites before my accident. I wish I knew more about recording when I did these. When I wrote this lyric (and many of that time), I was very evangelically minded. Now I'm more worship minded.
Lyrics
"A NEW LIFE" by Jeff Leslie 1981-1/6/022
It's not enough to try to say what He's done for me
Don't have the words nor you the time
It's all I can do just to make you see
A beautiful thing that is happening in me
It's not 'cause of something that I ever did
But giving my life so that I may truly live
I know you wonder why I live for a Man you can't see
But you could never be more wrong
His love is what makes the morning glow
His breath is a breeze that will never cease to blow
The rivers are flowing with all the tears
He's crying for you 'cause His Words you just won't hear
He's alive and He's living a new life He's giving
And I'm just beginning to see
In all that He's done He has only begun
To make a new life within me
But you will never understand what He's doing for me
It's something you must know yourself
Just think of the best that could ever be
And it could be yours if you only would believe
That He's alive and He's living a new life He's giving
And I'm just beginning to see
In all that He's done He has only begun
To make a new life within me
Yes, He's alive and He's living a new life He's giving
And I'm just beginning to see
In all that He's done He has only begun
To make a new life within me
