A New Year Begins (Poem)



Posted: Sunday, December 27, 2009

by David Tanguay

A new year is approaching and about to begin 
To make it
alright this time - to try again
 
We ask in the name of the Lord - up above
To guide us through - with his eternal love
 
Will we succeed this time in making life better
Will he respond - if we write him a letter
 
We ask you our Lord - to let us all see your light
Let it shine on everyone- for it is so bright
 
To make the world a better place to live
With all the love - that is ours to give
 
Looking forward to a better world
Tomorrow with your help - it we all unfurl
 
Let us start today - to make it all begin
All it takes is to release the love we have within
 
Tomorrow will soon be here - as it was planned
We will all know in our hearts - we will understand
 
Welcome in the New Year - for our Lord resides 
In him we may trust - with the love he provides

hi david,
 
this was a very refined and important poem.
 
we need to be reminded of the words you used.
 
sometimes we get so caught up in our daily lives,
 
we forget what's really important.
 
thanks for the reminder,
 
happy new year,
 
my best,
 
sue
