The following video is Tracy Chapman’s “New Beginning”. The core message of the song is that we all need to resolve to start all over and make a new beginning (which is also the essence of the Advent season). The refrain goes “We can break the cycle – We can break the chain. We can start all over – In the new beginning. We can learn, we can teach. We can share the myths, the dream, the prayer. The notion that we can do better. Change our lives and paths. Create a new world and start all over.” You can download the video in MP4 format by clicking here.
