I am the Queen of New Year's Resolutions, and I usually do pretty well living up to them -- for the first day or two of each new year. It's become obvious to me that the only way to really begin to be changed is to live every day like it's New Year's Day. Such an approach is possible because God's faithfulness really is great, and His mercies really are new every morning, just like it says in (of all places) Lamentations 3:23. Happy New Year!
I buy a lot of diaries
Fill them full of good intentions
Each and every New Year's Eve
I make myself a list
All the things I'm gonna change
Until January 2nd
So this time I'm making one promise
Chorus:
This will be my resolution
Every day is New Year's Day
This will be my resolution
Every day is New Year's Day
I believe it's possible
I believe in new beginnings
'Cause I believe in Christmas Day
And Easter morning too
And I'm convinced it's doable
'Cause I believe in second chances
Just the way that I believe in you
This will be my resolution
Every day is New Year's Day
This could start a revolution
Every day is...
One more chance to start all over
One more chance to change and grow
One more chance to grab a hold of grace
And never let it go
Repeat chorus
new years day top
(from Feel Free - 1997)
