If you didn’t know, Lauren Daigle‘s new album gave us the top radio hit “Thank God I Do.” Which has been nominated for the 2023 Dove Awards. My personal favorite off the album is her song “New.”
This album definitely explores genres like R&B, funk, soul, and for this song… I would say for sure gospel feel. Enjoy the video for “These Are The Days.”
Here’s the lyrics if you want to sing along, (you might end up dancing too):
People out there, people out thereLet go of your caresTurn your cries into loud hallelujahsThis is what we came for, oh
Leave all your worries behindWe know the future’s burning brightThis is the great jubilationThis is what He came for, what He came for
Oh, these are the days, these are the daysThese are the days we’ve been dreamin’ ofSo don’t look away ’cause these are the daysThese are the days, better get ’em while they come
We thought we’d never see the sun through the dark skies (through the dark skies)But all the signs are sayin’ it’s lookin’ upThese are the days, these are the daysThese are the days, we’ve been dreamin’ of, oh
Open your eyes, open your earsI’m tellin’ you whyYou’ll see Heaven inhabit our praisesThis is what we came for, oh
Singing a song of paradiseBelieving the good news is aliveThis is the great jubilationThis is what we came for, what He came for
If it’s not good, then it’s not overIf it’s not good, then it’s not overIf it’s not good, then it’s not overIf it’s not good, then it’s not over
After watching this video I was reminded of these scriptures:
“There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?” | John 14:2 NLT
“God inhabits the praises of His people” | Psalm 22:3
“Praise his name with dancing, accompanied by tambourine and harp.For the Lord delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.” | Psalm 149: 3-4
As Lauren kept dancing through the rooms, I thought about heaven. How God is preparing a place for us with many rooms and how we will dance and praise Him! Lauren is still set to release 12 MORE SONGS to her album on September 8th, 2023, so you can mark your calendars.
What’s Lauren Daigle Going To Wear To the Dove Awards?
Or some would call me Laney. I'm from small town friendly Forest City, NC. I love spending time with my family, worship, film, theater, and basically all things music.
God is writing our stories so that every life has a testimony. I want to spend my life creating platforms with others to share these stories and glorify the kingdom of God!

I love this video! It is filled with the Holy Spirit and worship and celebration for our Heavenly Father. It makes me get up and dance and sing praise to God even in the hard times because our future is with Him. Thank you, Jesus!
