A new season is about to start

This time of year when we take stock.

We find our faults and make amends.

A sign placed on our foreheads.

It reminds us of our mortal end

When we shall return and ashes blend.

To the soil from which we came

Saved by Christ, His death amends.

May we repent of all our sins

And claim the glory God has saved.

For those who rise from the dead

When this world will end, it's said.
