It's a new season, it's a new day
A fresh anointing is flowing my way

The devil's time is up, no longer can he bother me
'Cause the Creator of the universe, He fathers me
And it's transferable, my children's children shall be free

No greater time for us to make a choice and take a stand

All that was stolen is returned to you a hundred fold
Tried in the fire but you're coming out... gold!
All that was stolen is returned to you a hundred fold
Tried in the fire but you, you're coming out gold!
