The refreshing “new” feeling I get when I reach for the truth that is in God’s forgiveness.

The words to say have left my mouth
And now I am bound to drown
In this desert of an ocean
All feeling is lost and gone
Nothing is right
Everything’s wrong
But it’s alright, cause I see a light
That shines so bright
Just beyond the horizon
I see something of truth
Something new and of youth
Something that will save me
I see something that will give a crown
When I am feeling down
I see something that will lift me up
And let my cup… overflow
I see this truth
I reach
I receive
I’m NEW
