New Day

It's a new day
for you to pray,
and gives thanks
to God for the air to breathe,
and lungs to breathe it.

It's a new day
to let everything go
you tow behind you
in life's wake.
Let forgiveness
be your freedom key.

It's a new day
to say I love you,
to those who feel far away,
or those who truly are.
Let your heart speak
only what is true and right.

It's a new day
to rise and shine
your unique life light,
that will help others
on their way.

It's a new day
to shout and sing
God's praises.
Don't let all Creation's call
sound without you.

It's a new day
to count your jar of blessings
as more numerous and lasting,
than your passing jar of sorrows,
which the Lord has promised
will one day be no more.

It's a new day.
Full of promise.
Full of potential.
Full of grace.
Don't exist in it.
Live it to the full.

Jesus has made the way,
so don't miss the gift of this new day.
