Another year has passed away- I pause to meditate.
'Tis well to think of lessons learned and inventory take.
The sorrows seemed too hard to bear, but all have worked for good.
Each pain has left a bit of gain, as Father meant it should.
I find myself more patient, more trustful and more still,
More deeply rooted in my God, more yielded to His will.
I face the coming New Year with a settled peace within,
As another year of service for my Master I begin.
As signs about me witness that His coming draweth nigh,
I hopefully anticipate that meeting in the sky.
O Lord, may every lesson learned bear fruit in other lives,
Help me to overcome each plot that Satan may devise.
May victory crown the New Year with accomplishments for Thee.
And may you live unhindered your blessed life through me.

And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and
great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up,
and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
Luke 21:27-28
