New Leaves

Don't be afraid of forming new leaves. 
It's a chance at something new, something green
New life emerges from the dead of winter- 
All that was dark and sinister...
What you put off is now made new
Jesus Christ lives in you. 
Rejoice! Be glad! 
There's nothing left from which to hold back! 
Sometimes the growth part hurts- 
Because life is forming and then it bursts-
And just overnight, 
You're given new sight!
A new perspective, a new you!
That's something that can't be done on your own
No matter what you do.
So, enjoy life, carry on
For He who carried you, carries your burden too.
You who are soft spoken will be heard 
and those that are loud won't be seen as absurd.
It's a new day, a new life, you know
And He who holds you will NEVER let go.
