New Face
Taking a moment to reflect on the past,
Bringing forth love and forgiveness at last,
The choice is ultimately yours to choose,
In this case, He can only show you the right thing to do,
The difference is this is really not from the old,
What was written then before Jesus was born,
Some stories of old showing what not to do,
Before what was known better, before the new,
One brother not knowing whom the other was,
Until our God brought forth the love of his Son,
God took the calamity and set it straight,
Jesus changed their perspectives to love the right way,
To be stuck in the old only focused on can't,
With limited eyesight they could not see born again,
When the story of old comes to an end,
The new can break free to love again,
It was never a waste to go through the motions,
Because it changes our hearts not to go on a notion,
Fear can hold us away from who God made us to be,
Until Jesus came back to set our hearts free,
This time around we won't forget each others faces,
For God's love will overpower and ultimately replaces.
