It’s a brand new day and the sun is shining bright
Looks like it’s gonna be the very best day of my life
So I jump out of bed into a world of opportunities
I gotta get movin’, no time to get down on my knees
Then the telephone rings
It’s the voice of tragedy
Now I suddenly find
The time to get down on my knees

I say, “I love You”
I always look to You when trouble calls my name
But if I’m gonna say, “I love You”
I’ve gotta be faithful too
The true test of my love will be
Did I follow You consistently
Through the good and bad
I want to be faithful too

Talk is cheap
Some words come a dozen for a dime
But a real life conversation
Will take some precious time
And if I give my all
Lord that’s the least that I can do
Compared to all the faithfulness
I have found in You
So if tragedy calls
Or if everything goes my way
I want to be found
Faithful to You every day
