The Beginning (the Beginning Album Version) Lyrics - Singles - Michael Card

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
