By Frances Ridley Havergal

"A HAPPY NEW YEAR."

New mercies, new blessings, new light on thy way; New courage, new hope, and new strength for each day; New notes of thanksgiving, new chords of delight; New songs in the morning, new songs in the night; New wine in thy chalice, new altars to raise; New fruit for thy Master, new garments of praise; New gifts from his treasures, new smiles from his face; New streams from the fountain of infinite grace; New stars for thy crown, and new tokens of love; New gleams of the glory that waits thee above; New light of his countenance, radiant and clear,— All this be the joy of thy happy New Year!
—Frances Ridley Havergal, in Christian Weekly.
