Another Year
By Rev. Gregory S. Smith
Another year embarks the earth,
Embracing brave new dawns,
A brand-new path creating tasks,
Proclaiming right from wrong;
Another chance to mend the tears
That build us brighter ways,
Another course to build new dreams
And charter empty days;
Some safely lodged this time last year
By fate have journeyed on,
While leaving fresh a vacant path
To fill a Virgin song;
And while the road unsteady leads,
With brand new life we till,
Embarking in our newfound court,
We seek our portioned fill;
We’ll wager on with fortitude
Relinquished from above,
God’s word will reach, compelled to teach,
New lessons filled with love;
And with a burst of brand-new hope,
We lift our hands to thee,
And thank the Lord for safely granting us 2023!
