Song Meaning
Steven Curtis Chapman builds this one around a repeated image — sunrise, moonrise, waves on the shore — each one treated as God's own voice saying "I'll do it again." "New mercies every morning" lifts Lamentations 3:22 almost directly, the same promise of daily renewal given a cosmic scale across the whole song.
"God says I'm making all things new" quotes Revelation 21:5 directly, the declaration spoken from the throne at the very end of scripture. "Lighting every star and calling them by name" pulls in the image of God naming the stars individually, the song's comparison between astronomical scale and personal love held together rather than treated as a contradiction.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
There's something I been thinkin' a lot about lately
I think about it every morning when the sun comes up
It kinda reminds me of a little kid playing
And how it seems like they can never get enough
They say "do it again... do it again"
Maybe every morning when the sun breaks thru
Gods saying "I'll do it again"
Maybe every rising of a brand new moon
Gods says "I'll do it again"
Maybe every wave crashing on the shore
God's tryin' to say "I've got more to show you
I know I told you I loved you before but
I'm gonna do it again... I'll do it again
And again and again and again I'm gonna do it again"
I look at the night sky and imagine God smilin'
Lighting every star and calling them by name
Forever young and forever finding
Another way to put His love for us on display
He says do it again... do it again
Maybe every morning when the sun breaks thru
Gods saying "I'll do it again"
Maybe every rising of a brand new moon
Gods says "I'll do it again"
Maybe every wave crashing on the shore
God's tryin' to say "I've got more to show you
I know I told you I love you before but
I'm gonna do it again... I'll do it again
And again and again and again I'm gonna do it again"
New mercies every morning
New stories are unfolding
God says I'm making all things new
New mercies every morning
It's a glorious unfolding
God says "I'm making all things
I'm gonna do it again... I'll do it again
And again and again and again I'm gonna do it again"
