Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
That the Lord has made
I will rejoice and celebrate
This is the day
That the Lord has made
I will rejoice
I will rejoice and celebrate
He goes before me
He walks beside me
He lives within me
He's the lover of my soul
He's my defender
He's my provider
His overflowing mercies
Are brand new every day
I will rejoice
I will rejoice and celebrate
I will rejoice
I will rejoice
I will rejoice
Rejoice and celebrate
Bob Fitts's "This Is the Day" is a joyful Christian song that celebrates God's love and grace. The opening lyrics, "This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and celebrate," express the sentiment of the psalmist who wrote, "This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it" (Psalm 118:24). The repetition of this phrase emphasizes the importance of celebrating God's goodness and the present moment.
The second verse highlights the presence and providence of God in our lives. "He goes before me, He walks beside me, He lives within me" reminds us that God is always with us, leading, guiding, and sustaining us. The phrase "He's the lover of my soul" speaks to the intimacy of the relationship between God and the believer - the kind of love that frees us from fear and doubt. The third line, "He's my defender, He's my provider," affirms God's role as protector and provider in our lives.
The chorus is a simple affirmation of joy and celebration. The repetition of "I will rejoice and celebrate" reinforces the idea that choosing to celebrate God's goodness is a decision we make, regardless of our circumstances. The final line, "Rejoice and celebrate," echoes the psalmist's call to "be glad in it."
Overall, "This Is the Day" is a song that reminds us to be joyful and thankful, to remember God's presence and provision, and to celebrate each day as a gift from Him.
