GOOD TIDINGS

LORD, I was just thinking the other day

How there is always a need to pray.

The Scripture reminds us that man ought to always pray;

Yet, we sometimes struggle with words to say.

But as we embark on the coming of a new year,

I pray for good tidings of joy, hope, and cheer.

We faced many challenges in the year just past;

But we are thankful to You, LORD, that they didn’t last.

Our weeping during the night brought joy in the morning;

And now we can stretch our faith into the New Year that’s dawning.

I bless You, LORD, for each day of knowing

That your love for us is faithful and ever growing!

BLESSINGS FOR A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
