NEW YEAR SONG.

By Max Hill

BY MAX HILL.

SING of the happy New Year Time, Sing, for the flakes fall fast; Join with the bells in happy chime, Winter will soon be past.

Gone are the joys the old year brought, Gone are its sorrows, too; The old year's battles have all been fought; Welcome with joy the new.

Fill up the year with happiness, Sing your most cheering song; Sing, and the burdened soul will bless, Sing, and the faint grow strong.

Thank the dear Lord for blessings sent, He will provide for all; Take what He gives and be content, Jesus will hear you call.

Welcome the trials that come to you, Bearing will make you strong; Stand for the right, the good, the true, Dare to oppose the wrong.

Every day of the glad new year Live as in Jesus' sight; Trusting His promise you need not fear, Jesus will lead you right.
