A NEW DAY
A new day, a new start,
A fresh change of heart,
A new better way of life
Free from sin and strife.

Lend a kind, helping hand,
Save from sinking sand,
Then show him a better way
To go through life’s day.

It is up to us what kind of day
We have, up to us what we say,
Up to us what we do with time
Given, to laugh or always whine.

A new day, a new chance
Our lives to now enhance,
To show whom we serve,
Think what reward to deserve.
