A Brand New Start (Poem)

 

A Brand New Start

I can feel my God moving
in my heart and in my soul.
It's a beauty beyond description
when I let Him take control.

I know without a doubt
I can't live this life alone.
The burden was so heavy,
but He rolled away the stone.

In my time of searching,
Jesus came and rescued me.
He completely turned my life around;
His Spirit set me free.

I believe my Saviour died and rose;
I've made a brand new start.
He didn't change my world,
He just purified my heart.

Inside, His grace is overflowing,
My Lord - He reigns supreme.
Of all the motives I could choose,
I want real love to be the theme.

I know I'm still imperfect, Father,
of that I'm very much aware,
But I thank You, Lord, for Your forgiveness,
for Your mercy and Your care.

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:
old things are passed away; behold all things are become new.
2nd Corinthians 5:17

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,
that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God,
which is your reasonable service.
Romans 12:1
