Verse 1 A new Day is breaking, soft light on the sea, A call in the morning, a promise for me, We open our hearts to a message so wide, Two Lamps for the world, and we walk by their Light. Chorus Walk with the dawn, hold to the Light, Learn of the Bab, learn of the Christ of this Age, Bahá’u’lláh, Walk with the dawn, steady and bright, Love is the law, and the world will be one. Verse 2 From prison and exile, the Word still went forth, To heal every people, to gather the earth, So we study, we listen, we rise up as friends, And we carry that Daylight wherever it sends. Chorus Walk with the dawn, hold to the Light, Learn of the Bab, learn of Bahá’u’lláh, Walk with the dawn, steady and bright, Love is the law, and the world will be one. Bridge Not a story to admire, then leave on the shelf, It is fire in the spirit, it is change in the self, It is courage in service, it is truth without fear, It is unity growing, year after year. Final Chorus Walk with the dawn, hold to the Light, Learn of the Bab, learn of Bahá’u’lláh, Walk with the dawn, steady and bright, Love is the law, and the world will be one. [Children’s song, “New Day, New Light”] New day, new light, Make my heart shine bright, I will love, I will share, I will show I care. [Junior youth chant, “The Dawn Is Here”] The dawn is here, we rise, we rise, With truth and love before our eyes, Study, act, and teach the way, Hand in hand, a brand new Day.
