De Um Jeito Novo

My son, you asked me how it will pass
If behind comes the pharaoh, in front there is the sea
There's nowhere to escape, nor how to walk
You asked me, Lord, how the order is for me to march
If I'm surrounded and can't even walk

But today I came down just to answer you
My son, truly it's hard to understand
Why I will do something unprecedented for you

Because I make new and anew
In a new way
I am a path creator
I create a path amidst the storm
I create a path in the middle of the desert
I have always been close by
Behold, I do something new
Oh, oh, oh
Behold, I do something new

But today I came down just to answer you
My son, truly it's hard to understand

I create a path in the middle of the desert
I have always been close by
Behold, I do something new
Oh, oh, oh
I am doing something new, oh, oh, oh

There's something new here, it smells like a miracle
What has passed, has passed
I am the God of novelty

There's something new here, I smell a miracle
What has passed, has passed
I am the God of novelty

Do not be afraid of the desert you have to go through if you don't see a path, I will create
For I am your God and I will set you free
And who can question when I part the sea?

You don't need a path to cross
Because even on the waters I make you walk
Don't look back, the new time has come
Who can thwart the plans of the Lord?

Because I make new, and anew
And anew, and anew, in a new way, in a new way
I am a path creator
I create a path amidst the storm
I create a path in the middle of the desert
I have always been close by
Behold, I do something new

Something new, new time, novelty
A new story, a new life

I am making everything new
