NewSong's 'Say Yes' is an upbeat Christian pop song encouraging listeners to make a positive commitment to Jesus. The lyrics address the pressure from peers and the temptation to say no to faith, but the chorus emphasizes that you can't truly say no until you've said yes to Jesus, who is the answer to life's tests. The song urges trust in Christ for strength to make right choices. It's a straightforward call to embrace faith and obedience, with a catchy, repetitive hook that reinforces the message of saying yes to God.

The questions come from far and near
The pressure comes from our peers
They want to know just how far we'll go
The answer we've been told is to just say no
Uh-uh, oh, no, not me, forget it, negative
Get out of here, no, oh-whoa
How can you say no till you say yes
How can you do better till you've trusted the best
Jesus is the answer to life's test
How can you say no till you say yes
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
I said, say yeah, yeah
Say, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say yes
Now listen close to me, my friend
I've told you once, now I'll tell you again
Jesus alone can give you strength to know
When to say yes and when to say no
Uh-uh, oh, no, not me, forget it, negative
Get out of here, no, oh-whoa
How can you say no till you say yes
How can you do better till you've trusted the best
Jesus is the answer to life's test
How can you say no till you say yes
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
I said, say yeah, yeah
Say, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
How can you say no till you say yes
How can you do better till you've trusted the best
Jesus is the answer to life's test
How can you say no till you say yes
How can you say no till you say yes
How can you do better till you've trusted the best
Jesus is the answer to life's test
How can you say no
Oh, how can you say no
How can you say no till you say yes
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh-ooh-ooh...
