A FRESH START By Dr. Irene Surya

I sat forlorn in a cage With a burden so heavy I wanted to fly far and wide But knew not the way out.

At the cross My Savior died, to save me, A wretched sinner from sin And has risen again to glory.

A fresh start to a life Brimming with peace The peace in God Through peace with God.

At the cross My burden rolled away I bid adieu to my past And turned a new leaf.

A fresh start to a life Overflowing with joy, The joy of being a sanctuary Of God, my refuge.

At the cross I was forgiven. I flew to everlasting freedom From the cage of bondage.

A fresh start to a life Encompassed in love. The love of the Almighty God Who bought me paying a ransom.

At the cross My pilgrimage began I run my race With the eternal home in sight.
