{":New Year Prayer:"} (107 hits)

The Past Is A Ghost, The Future A Dream. All We Ever Have Is Now.

- Bill Cosby

Many Are Saying Of Me,

" God Will Not Deliver Him."

But You Are A Shield Around Me, O Lord;

You Bestow Glory On Me And Lift Up My Head

Psalm 3:2-3 Niv

Our Father In Heaven, We Come At This Hour To Express Our Sincere Thanks For Another Year.

We Are Thankful That You Have Spared Our Lives, And That You Have Brought Us All The Way Through Another Year.

We Pray That, As We Conclude This Old Year and begin a new one, We Will Find Joy, That We Will Find Happiness, That We Will Find Grace Sufficient To Take Care Of Our Needs.

Our Father, We Thank You For Each One Of Our Family Members, Friends, Coworkers, Neighbors, Leaders And Our Sisters And Brothers In You.

We Thank You That We Are Still Here, That We Can Still Hear, That We Are Still Able To Feel, That We Are Still Able To Walk, And That We Are Still Able To Talk,

We Just Want To Thank You For These Blessings As Well As Others

Oh God, Bless Them, Bless Their Houses That They May Continue To Live In Your Light. Bless Each One I Have Mention And The One's I Did Not Mention.

Enable Us To Do The Things That You Would Have Us To Do.

And, Oh God, Great God, We Just Thank You!

We Thank You Jesus! You Have Been So Good To Us!

You Have Brought Us Such A Long Way.

You Left Us Up When We Were Down!

You Healed Our Seat Bodies! You Brought Us A Very Long Way.

We Want To Thank You For It.

You Have Fed Us And Kept Us From Being Hungry.

You Have Opened Doors That Were Closed In Our Face.

We Want To Thank You For It This Day.

And, Oh God, We Don't Know Whether We Will Be Here Another Year Or Not!

We Can't Depend On That.

But We Know That Wherever We Are, That Where You Are, Everything Will Be All Right!

We Want To Thank You This Day, Our Father.

Take Our Hands And Lead Us All On.

We Ask In Your Name.

Amen.

William Townsend Crutcher, 1984
