New Name Live by Common Hymnal Lyrics
[Intro]
The day I went to court to sign the papers to adopt my seven-year-old daughter, you could see the change in her almost immediately. It was clear her world became a little bit more focused, and her new last name sealed her identity. She didn't have to battle with the feelings of uncertainty, or not quite knowing who she really was anymore, it felt like home, it felt safe.
[Verse 1]
You've given me a new name
You've set me in a family
You pulled me out of my pain
You're never walking out on me
[Verse 2]
You've given me a new name
You've told me that You love me
You set me in a safe place
Where You are my security
[Chorus]
And You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
[Verse 3]
And this is my new name
This is where You brought me
I'm living in a wild place
Where You're making me a masterpiece
[Chorus]
And You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
[Bridge]
And this is my story, this is my song
This is my perfect Father's love
This is my story, this is my song
This is my perfect Father's love
This is my story, this is my song
This is my perfect Father's love
This is my story, this is my song
This is my perfect Father's love
[Verse 4]
Thank You for my new name
Thank You for my family
I could never repay
A love that gave it all for me
[Chorus]
And You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
[Bridge]
And this is our story, this is our song
This is our perfect Father's love
This is our story, this is our song
This is our perfect Father's love
This is our story, this is our song
This is our perfect Father's love
This is our story, this is our song
This is our perfect Father's love
[Chorus]
And You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
You're singing over me
The song of love
