Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I moved from my old friends
I moved from my old way of strife
Thank God I moved out to a brand new life
He changed my old way with words
He changed my old leveled mind
He changed my heart and gave me a new start
Can?t you see I'm a new man
Don't you know I got a new name
And one day I'll live in that new land
Because I moved out to a brand new life
I got a new walk
New walk
I got a new talk
New talk
I got a new look
New look
I got a new name
New name
I got a new heart
New heart
I got a new mind
New mind
I got a new home
New home
And a new start is going my way
Yes it is
Because I moved out to a brand new life

I'm listening in 2021, I remember this as a young child, learning to play the drums in my church while my father played the organ to this song, it's still awesome. Now my God Mom is going to sing this at a funeral tomorrow, it still brings back great memories. These are songs that have great meanings to it.
