In the beginning was the beginning And in it all began All that they had was God and the garden The woman and the man Before creation learned to groan The stars would dance and sing Each moment was new, every feeling was fresh For the creature king and queen But deep in the heart of that beautiful garden Forbidden truth was found That they were deceived, disobeyed and were driven From that holy ground But beside the tree of disobedience The tree of life did grow The gift of its fruit and eternal beginning But they would never know The beginning will make all things new New life belongs to Him He hands us each new moment saying My child begin again My child begin again You're free to start again This very moment is filled with His power That we might start anew To break us away from the past and the future He does what He must do And so the Alpha brings to us This moment to commence To live in the freedom of total forgiveness With reckless confidence, with reckless confidence The beginning will make all things new New life belongs to Him He hands us each new moment saying My child, begin again My child, begin again You're free to start again The beginning will make all things new New life belongs to him He hands us each new moment, saying My child, begin again My child, begin again You're free to start again
