Thanking God for a blessed year past and trusting Him for a blessed year ahead.
May we seek, and then may we find
The wonder of Love’s perfect Gift
The kindred Hope of all mankind
Implores us to come now and lift
Our hearts and hands in joyful hymn
To worship Christ of Bethlehem
May we in spirit and in Truth
Embrace love’s gladness and its joy
Relinquishing sorrow and grief
For hope in Heaven’s Baby Boy
And may we find from this day forth
A Deeper Meaning to life’s worth
May the grace of forgiveness cleanse
Us from the bitter thorn of spite
May the deliverance of Him
Who loves us so, make our wrongs right
And may we learn in word and thought
To worship Jesus as we ought
May we when this season has passed
Still sing its worship-song of cheer
And may we resolve thence to trust
In God all through the coming year
And may we find, each day we live
The Gift that Jesus came to give
