THIS NEW
YEAR |
|
Take a
lighted candle |
Look
closely at the flickering flame |
Is it like
last year's promises |
That shone
brightly and then faded away? |
You recall
each day and night past |
And wonder
where they're leading to |
But inside
you still have |
That still
small voice speaking to you |
|
It leads
you gently on |
Through the
sunshine and the rain |
Renewing
your spirit |
And
rekindling the flame |
|
In this new
year |
Look at
your neighbours |
And the
friends with whom you cry |
Then take
the time |
To join
with them and give thanks |
For love
easing each fear |
In this new
year |
|
Who walks
life's road with you ? |
Who brings
you joy instead of pain |
As you
answer each question |
Close your
eyes and pray |
That this
world full of heartache |
And busy
people within |
Will take
time to share with you |
And love's
story will begin |
|
It leads
you to face each day |
And realise
you're not alone |
But the
voice speaks only calm |
In the
midst of the storm |
|
In this new
year |
Look around
you |
And you
will surely find |
Friends who
share your life |
Then take
the time |
To face
with them |
A future
that can be clear |
In this new
year |
|
