This is a Day of New Beginnings

This is 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.

For by the life and death of Jesus,

God’s mighty Spirit, now as then,

Can make for us a world of difference,

As faith and hope are born again.

Christ 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.
