Another Year

All through the coming year
He will be near thee.

Share His Love in the New Year
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A brand-new year, a chance to show,
God’s love and grace where’er you go.

To share His love for all to see.
Don’t fear to speak, don’t hold back,

Plant seeds of faith, let kindness shine,
Trust in His Spirit, His plan divine.
So step in faith, with heart sincere,
And share His Gospel through the year.

Let your life reflect His ways.

A Poem for the Year
Poet: Nathaniel Parker Willis
Fleetly hath passed the year; the seasons came
Duly as they were wont — the gentle spring,
And the delicious summer, and the cool,
Rich autumn, with the nodding of the grain,
And winter, like an old and hoary man,
Frosty and stiff — and so are chronicled.

A New Year of Forgiveness
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
The old year fades, its trials done,
A fresh new chapter has begun.
Release the hurts, let anger go,
And let God’s healing gently flow.
Forgiveness frees the heart and mind,
It leaves the pain of past behind.
Extend His grace, as He gives to you,
A love so pure, forever true.
So start this year with a heart made light,
Choose peace and joy, walk in His light.
With every step, His love will show,
Through forgiveness, we truly grow.

A New Year
Poet: Unknown
Over the threshold a gallant new-comer
Steppeth with tread that is royal to see;
White as the winter-time, rosy as summer,
Hope in his eyes, and his laugh ringeth free.
Lo! in his hands there are gifts overflowing,
Promises, prophecies, come in his train;
O'er him the dawn in its beauty is glowing,
Flee from his presence the shadows of pain.
Welcome, then, New Year, with stainless white pages,
Though we may blot them ere long with our tears;
So it has been through the long passing ages,
Worn with the footprints of close crowding years.
Welcome, sweet year! may the full-handed hours
Find us like servants who wait for their Lord;
Using with earnest devotion our powers,
Looking for him, and obeying his word.

A Year in His Hands
Poet: Catherine Pulsifer
A new year dawns, with skies unknown,
Yet not one step we walk alone.
Through faith we trust, come joy or tears,
In God's great plan for all our years.
Each moment shines, a gift so dear,
Wrapped in His love, free from fear.
Though paths may twist and trials come near,
Our hearts stay strong, for He is here.
We lift our gaze, our hopes set high,
Embracing grace that fills the sky.
In every breath, through all we do,
Lord, may our lives reflect You true.
So here we stand, in humble grace,
To face each day, each time, each place,
With faith renewed, we boldly go,
Held by His hand, His love to show.

Reveal His glory, none can hide.
Each bird that sings, each flower that grows,

Celebrating His works with a joyful heart.

A New Year dawns, so fresh and bright,
With God’s great love, our guiding light.

To seek His will with all our heart.
The past is gone, its weight removed,
By grace, our hearts are deeply moved.
Forgiven, freed, and made anew,
