A New Beginning

Smalltown Poets


When it's love you're after 
And heart break you find 
When you tried to catch up 
Only to be left behind 

When you made your choices 
And they brought you here 
Surprised by failure 
Hope replaced by fear 
Oh, oh, oh 

When you've walked a hard mile 
Will you walk one more 
And you have no words 
To say what you're looking for 

Had your rules and broke them 
Can't bear to see your own face 
Now when justice accuses 
You get a thirst for grace 
Everlasting grace, everlasting 

A new beginning 
Life in Christ 
Is now and ever 
A new beginning 
With mercy he renews 

When your dreams all come true 
And your life is full 
Then you wake up to find 
You can't ignore the pull 

When your heart is broken 
By a sacrifice 
What you've known is dying 
You get a taste for life 

Everlasting life, everlasting 

A new beginning 
Life in Christ 
Is now and ever 
A new beginning 
With mercy he renews 

As we put the old away 
We begin in Christ today
