Is this a day of new beginnings

by Brian A. Wren

Representative text

As printed in The Seventh-day Adventist Hymnal (1985), no. 342.

Verse 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?

Verse 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?

Verse 3

Yet thro’ 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.

Verse 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.

Verse 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.
