Life In My Day
NewSong's 'Life In My Day' is a contemporary Christian song about the struggle to balance busy schedules with spiritual priorities. The narrator feels rushed and overwhelmed by daily demands, but realizes that more time isn't the solution—what's needed is more of God's presence and life infused into each moment. The chorus asks for 'a little more life in my day,' meaning more faith, light, and guidance from God. The song encourages listeners to slow down, avoid missing God in the hurry, and seek His will in all they do. It's a practical, relatable prayer for divine perspective amid life's pressures.
My cell phone's ringing and I'm running late
Morning traffic's got me
Time is ticking away
A few more hours is all that I need
Seems like there is just not enough days in a week
But then it hits me
Time is not the answer
You've given me all the time in the world
All that I need is
[Chorus:]
A little more life in my day
A little more of your life
A little more faith
A little more life in my day
A little more of your light
To show me the way
If I'm gonna be in this world but not be of it
Lord, I need more of you
In all that I do
Put a little more life in my day
Sometimes I guess I get lost in the race
Trying to make a deadline just to keep the pace
I can't help feeling I'm always behind
So much that I can do if I could just find the time
But then it hits me
Time is not the answer
You've given me all the time in the world
All that I need is
[Chorus]
Lord, don't let be in such a hurry
Trying to live my life
That I miss you in it
Help me to take the time to see
All that I need, yeah
A little more life in my day
[Chorus x2]
