This Day

They'll be gathering together
Sharing hearts and hands as first rays fall
All our connected lives
Arriving down by the mission wall
And sometimes it's not easy
To take a step outside and face the day
'Cause part of you forever
In this place will always stay

Tear away the pages
Keep them locked up in your memory
We all open mornings doors
Go walking out with destiny
All around, familiar faces
Voices ringing out warm and near
They take us to the moment
And the dance that leads us

Bless this day
I say, I pray
We'll take this day
For always

You'll be frozen in your moment
You'll be beautiful for all of time
Waiting on the wonder road
Where saints and angels walk the line
And someday much, much older
You'll look back and chance to dream aloud
Was there a moment greater
Than one to make someone proud

Bless this day
I say, I pray
We'll take this day
For always
