Another Year Is Dawning
Another year is dawning,
dear Father, let it be
In working or in waiting,
another year with Thee.
Another year of progress, another
year of praise,
Another year of proving Thy
presence all the days.
Another year of mercies, of
faithfulness and grace,
Another year of gladness in
the shining of Thy face;
Another year of leaning
upon Thy loving breast;
Another year of trusting,
of quiet, happy rest.
Another year of service, of
witness for Thy love,
Another year of training
for holier work above.
Another year is dawning,
dear Father, let it be
On earth, or else in
Heaven, another year for Thee.
