342. Is This a Day of New Beginnings

1 Is this a day of new beginnings, Time to remember and move on, Time too believe what love is bringing, Laying to rest the pain that’s gone? 2 How can the seasons of a planet Mindlessly spinning round its sun With just a human name and number Say that some new thing has begun? 3 Yet through the life and death of Jesus Love’s mighty Spirit, now as then, Can make for us a world of difference As faith and hope are born again. 4 Then let us, with the Spirit’s daring, Step from the past and leave behind Its disappointment, guilt, and grieving, Seeking new paths, and sure to find. 5 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.
