How Can You Really Care

I took a walk down memory lane when we used to sing these songs in school at our weekly Mass. I haven't played this in about 37 (gah!) years, but it all came flooding back to me as I started, chords and all.
Here is "It's a Brand New Day" as I remember it:
1.
It's a brand new day, ev'rything is fine
Though it may be gray, want you to know
The sun's gonna shine
And out of that sky, piercing every cloud
Is our God on high
There will be a new heart for every man
Like the flowers that come in early spring
For every life there is a plan
No matter what autumn breezes bring
CHORUS
So put away cares, let freedom be yours
Joy is everywhere, joy is everywhere
Let freedom ring, Alleluia now
Ev'rybody sing,
Let our voices shout to the Mighty King
2.
Well the heaven's declare in a way so grand
If the skies are fair or windy or gray
it's the work of His Hands
And down on that ground, with never a word
Such a mighty sound
And the morning will see the rolling sun
As he happily rises o'er the land
A messenger on his daily run
Brings news of the Father's guiding Hand
3.
His Law of love, it is wholly wise
Word from above gives joy to my heart and it's light to my eyes
It's riches are fine out lasting all days
To the end of time
Though I walk in the path of evil ways
And my thoughts are a presence causing pain
There's always a sun of future days
That follows a time of wind and rain
Here is "It's a Brand New Day" as I remember it:
1.

And out of that sky, piercing every cloud

Like the flowers that come in early spring
For every life there is a plan
No matter what autumn breezes bring
