Brighter Day - Live at Lakewood Church, Houston, TX - June 16, 2000

Young people go on and stand up real quick
C'mon, everybody stand up
Yo, everybody come get your bounce on, get your bounce on, get your bounce on
Don't be cute with it, you gotta get, c'mon, fifth horn, fourth horn
C'mon, sing it

When I close my eyes, I think of you
And reminisce on all the things you do
I can't imagine my life without you
It's like paradise, now I
Know that it's real (um)
It's a mystery
For someone to give their life just for me (c'mon)
What you did on Calvary
Makes me wanna love you more (watch this)

I never knew
I could be so happy
I never knew
I'd be so secure
Because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
(C'mon everybody clap like this, clap like this, sing)

Never thought that I would smile again
I never thought the dark clouds would end
Never thought that I could have a friend
That would keep me, never leave me alone
Jesus you're my everything
The only one that makes my heart sing (heart sing)
Now I know what real love means
It's everlasting, lasting (c'mon, c'mon)

I never knew
I could be so happy
I never knew
I'd be so secure
Because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
(Sing it with me one more time)

I never knew
I could be so happy
I never knew
I'd be so secure
Because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
Listen to this ya'll, listen

Nothing can compare
To the joy you bring
An everlasting love affair
Jesus my life would never be the same
I found someone who truly cares

C'mon and clap your hands, clap your, clap, ah c'mon
C'mon and clap your hands ah, everybody c'mon
And let me hear

I never knew
I could be so happy
I never knew
I'd be so secure
Because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brigther day, brighter day, brighter day

Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day

Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day
Brighter day, brighter day, brighter day, brighter day

Wait wait wait
They gonna wanna hear some horns
Wait wait wait, wait wait wait you doin' it too cute
Don't do it cute, c'mon

I never knew
I could be so happy (I never knew Jesus)
I never knew
I'd be so secure
Because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
