New Year Prayer
He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” Revelation 21:5

Snowflakes falling,
Wide fields of white,
A wintry world,
Behold the sight:
~*~
Fields once green
Now covered with snow,
Blankets of white
Where flowers did grow.
~*~
Dark are the days,
Gray are the skies,
Barren are the trees
Before my eyes.
~*~
A year is ending,
A new year awaits,
I think of You, Jesus,
Behind Heavenly gates.
~*~
Surely all things
You will make new:
The fields, the flowers,
The barren trees too.
~*~
My life also
You renew with love,
While You prepare treasures
In Heaven above.
~*~
Rejoice, then, my heart,
When snowy blankets I see;
Long days of Sonshine
Are mine in eternity.
~*~
Dark days cannot sadden,
Nor cold bring sorrow,
For endless Son-filled days
Await tomorrow.
~*~
In the year ahead
May I be more like You;
Take my heart, my mind,
My entire life too.
~*~
Sweet renewal I find
When all to You I give;
So for You, my Jesus,
I choose to live.
~*~
In my heart
Melt the blankets of snow;
Allow the flame of love
In my heart to grow.
~*~
Plant flowers of virtue,
Trees of grace too;
Shine in my soul
With light pure and true.
~*~
And as snowflakes falling,
Make my soul white;
You make all things new
In Your perfect Sonlight.
