New Years
Here's to more of laughter and less of tears.
Here's to visions being more concrete than lost dreams.
Here's to board games, mulled cider and happy homes.
There's been shadow and there's been pain.
But thanks be to God for keeping us sane.
Here's to kindness and not the scorn.
Here's to excitement of a new day just born.
Here's to new shoes and how they might be worn.
There's been lies and there's been grief
But thanks be to God for bringing relief.
Here's to comfort in times of pain.
Here's to rest when you're feeling drained.
Here's to help when you're hurt and alone.
There's been fragments and there's been breaks
But thanks be to God for giving us what it takes.
