Is This a Day of New Beginnings?

1Is this a day of new beginnings, Time to remember and move on, Time to believe what love is bringing, Laying to rest the pain that's gone?

2How can the seasons of a lifetime, Mindlessly spinning round its sun, With just a human name and number, Say that some new thing has begun?

3Yet thro' the life and death of Jesus, Love's mighty Spirit, now as then, Can make for us a point of difference, As faith and hope are born again.

4Then let us, with the Spirit's daring, Step from the past and leave behind Our disappointment, guilt, and grieving, Seeking new paths, and sure to find.

5Christ is alive, and goes before us To show and share what love can do. This is a day of new beginnings; Our God is making all things new.
