Another Year (Poem)




Another year is dawning

Another year is dawning!

Dear Master, let it be,

In working or in waiting,

Another year with Thee.

 

Another year of learning

Upon Thy loving breast,

Of ever-deepening trustfulness,

Of quiet, happy rest.

 

Another year of mercies;

Of faithfulness and grace;

Another year of gladness

In the shining of Thy face.

 

Another year of progress;

Another year of praise;

Another year of proving

Thy presence "all the
days."

 

Another year of service,

Of witness for Thy love;

Another year of training

For holier work above.

 

Another year is dawning!

Dear Master, let it be,

On earth, or else in heaven,

Another
year for Thee!
