The song was written by Aldo Nova and Stephan Moccio and produced by Walter Afanasieff and Nova as a piano-driven ballad in 6/8 time. However, the midtempo radio remix co-produced by Ric Wake was released as the lead track. Both versions are included on the album.
The "A New Day Has Come" music video was directed by Dave Meyers and premiered in March 2002.
"A New Day Has Come" was very successful around the world. On the U.S. Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, the song broke the record for most weeks at number 1: it stayed on top twenty-one weeks. The previous record holders were Phil Collins' "You'll Be in My Heart" and Céline Dion's own "Because You Loved Me," both of which lasted nineteen weeks at number 1. However, as of today, the record has been surpassed, as "Drift Away" by Uncle Kracker featuring Dobie Gray remained twenty-eight weeks at number 1 in 2004. Ironically, it was Céline Dion who almost took the crown from "Drift Away," but "Have You Ever Been in Love" stopped at number 2 for fourteen weeks, which is another record. In the U.S., the single appeared on the Billboard Hot 100 because of airplay only, reaching number 22 (also number 22 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay).
The DVD single was released four months later in the U.S., peaking at number 11 on the Top Music Video and number 16 on the Hot 100 Singles Sales. It has sold 45,000 copies and was certified gold. "A New Day Has Come" CD single was also certified gold in Australia (35,000), Greece (30,000) and Norway (10,000). In the United Kingdom it has sold 110,000 copies.
Dion performed this song five nights a week during her show A New Day... at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas and released it on the Live in Las Vegas - A New Day... DVD in December 2007. In October 2008, "A New Day Has Come" was included on My Love: Essential Collection greatest hits.
New Day Has Come
Céline Dion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
For a miracle to come
Everyone told me to be strong
Hold on and don't shed a tear
So through darkness and good times
I knew I'd make it through
And the world thought I had it all
Hush now
I see a light in the sky
Oh it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel
With love
Let the rain come down
And wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul
And drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls
For a new sun
A new day has come
A new day has come
Where it was dark now there's is light
Where there was pain, now there's joy
Where there was weakness, i found my strength
All in the eyes of a boy
Hush now
I see a light in the sky
Oh it's almost blinding me
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel
With love
Let the rain come down
And wash away my tears
Let it fill my soul
And drown my fears
Let it shatter the walls
For a new sun
A new day has come
A new day has come

The second verse talks about how the world thought that everything was good, but the singer was waiting for this special someone. The chorus talks about seeing a light in the sky and being touched by an angel with love. The rain is used metaphorically to symbolize washing away the singer's tears and fears and allowing a new day to come.
The second verse mentions that the singer found strength in the eyes of a boy, indicating that this miracle that has finally come is a new love. The phrase "touched by an angel" can be interpreted as referring to the miracle of love or finding a special person who brings light back into the singer's life.

I was waiting for so long
I had been waiting for an extended period of time.
For a miracle to come
I was eagerly awaiting something exceptional to happen.
Everyone told me to be strong
People encouraged me to remain resilient.
Hold on and don't shed a tear
I was instructed to stay the course and avoid crying.
So through darkness and good times
Amid both challenging and joyful occasions.
I knew I'd make it through
I was confident I would overcome any obstacles.
And the world thought I had it all
Others believed I lacked nothing.
But I was waiting for you
But I was anticipating your arrival.
Hush now
Quiet down.
I see a light in the sky
I observe a shining light in the atmosphere.
Oh it's almost blinding me
It's becoming nearly too bright to bear.
I can't believe I've been touched by an angel
I cannot fathom being graced by a divine being.
With love
With a compassionate, warm feeling.
Let the rain come down
Allow the precipitation to fall.
And wash away my tears
And cleanse my eyes of any tears.
Let it fill my soul
Let it fulfill my inner being.
And drown my fears
And submerge my apprehensions.
Let it shatter the walls
Let it break down the barriers.
For a new sun
For a new dawn.
A new day has come
A new era has begun.
Where it was dark now there's is light
Where there was obscurity, brightness is now present.
Where there was pain, now there's joy
Where there was agony, now there is jubilation.
Where there was weakness, i found my strength
Where there was frailty, I discovered my resilience.
All in the eyes of a boy
All due to the influence of a young male.

I need to share this with you because you need to know it. Friends are extraordinary and amazing.
Incredible but true🤑🥰.
After several years of looking for a loan, I had a bad experience. I was desperate, hopeless.
I saw on a poster in the street not far from my home, an advertisement of the company Yves Jacob Finance SAS which grants loans, and very reliable. I then contacted them and miraculously got the loan I had been hoping for for six years.
I thank my God very much for having put me on the right path and I thank the company very much for their credibility because thanks to them I opened my store again. 🙏🏾🥺
Don't hesitate to get in touch with them friends. Contacted them by email or whatsapp: loan2017offer@outlook.fr

@blessingschilufya4936
Yes you’re right 🫂❤️🇿🇲
@ReducePlastic
Prayer doesn't work. Pastors would have been laying hands and healing people of COVID if it did.
@okorochukwunonso2563
She’s better and stronger. It’s a new dawn for her. She appeared at the Grammys looking great.
Love her deeply!❤
