Happy New Year!

A very Happy and Blessed 2011 to All!! 

Another year is dawning,
Dear Lord, let it be,
In working, or in waiting,
Another year with Thee.

Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness
In the shining of Thy face.

Another year of progress,
Another year of praise,
Another year of proving
Thy presence all the days.

Another year of service,
Of witness of Thy love,
Another year of training
For holier work above.

Another year is dawning,
Dear Lord, let it be
On earth, or else in heaven
Another year for Thee.

--Francis Ridley Havergal (1874)

What a lovely and encouraging poem! A new year to walk closer with Jesus Christ, what a priviledge. Thank you for following me. Your comment has already been a blessing to me!

May the Lord bless you!
