In the beginning

Was the first day of the earth

First day of water

First day of sky

First day of light

First day of Adam and first day of Eve

First day of you and the first day of me

In the beginning

Was the first word on paper

First mark on a coloring page

First sentence of a paragraph

First stroke of paint on a canvas

First day of school, first day of work

First day of friends and of family

First day of you and the first day of me

In the beginning

Was the first day of fear for a new beginning

First day of Jesus for me the battle winning

First day of anxiety over new starts

First day of Jesus overcoming my heart

First day of Jesus Lord of my life

First day of being born a second time

First day of Jesus comforting my sorrow

First day of Jesus, becoming my Savior

In the beginning

Was the first day of knowing what Jesus has done

Dying for me, laying His life down

First day now free to follow His ways

First day now free found in His gaze

First day now free to hold onto His hand

Guided and led according to His plan

First day empowered, enabled to shine

First day of me for the second first time
