The shortest day has come and gone
“Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord.” Proverbs 3:5
Lord grant us through the coming year
A willingness to uplift and bless,
Help us weigh up our daily blessings
And in some way try to express.
Always a spirit that’s tactful and ready
To consider another’s point of view,
As we seek to lighten another’s load
We’re blessed with strength and courage too.
Let’s brighten up this dark old world
Despite the storms and skies of grey,
The shortest day has come and gone
And Spring is on its way.
Endurance unlocks the door to achievement
Lean on your true and unchanging friend,
And you’ll find life’s scars grow fainter
Sorrows fade and hopes ascend.
