Hello New Year

Chilly, dismal, foggy rain
is falling on this day
that ends a tired old year
and for the new makes way.

Memories of many things
flow thorugh my mind right now;
good things, bad things, in between.
All things God did allow.

Many things I should have done
forever are undone.
Tomorrow starts a new race
'tis one I'll try to run.

God grant me a clean new slate
to start a brand New Year.
My prayer is just to follow
the way you make quite clear.

Please, Lord, when this New Year ends
I will have stood the test
and can hear these words from You
"my child, you've done your best."
