A PRAYER FOR THE NEW YEAR

 

What shall I ask for the coming year

What shall my watchword be

What should thou do for me, dear Lord

What can I do for thee

 

Lord, I would ask for a blessed year

Spent in thy perfect will

Help me to walk in thy very steps

Help me to please thee still.

 

Lord, I would ask for a year of love

O let me love thee best

Give me the love that faileth not

Beneath the hardest test

 

Lord, I would ask for a year of prayer

Teach me to walk with thee

Breathe in my heart the Spirit’s prayer

Pray thou thy prayer in me

 

Lord, I would ask for a year of joy

Thy peace, thy joy divine

Springing undimmed through all the days

Be thy days of shade or shine

 

Lord, I would ask for the dying world

Stretch forth thy mighty hand

Thy truth proclaim, thy power display

This year in every land
