New Year – Hymn Lyric
Bless, O Lord, each opening year
To the souls assembling here:
Clothe Thy word with power divine,
Make us willing to be Thine.
Where Thou hast Thy work begun,
Give new strength the race to run;
Scatter darkness, doubts, and fears,
Wipe away the mourner’s tears.
Bless us all, both old and young;
Call forth praise from every tongue:
Let our whole assembly prove
All Thy power and all Thy love!

New Year: A Time for Blessings and New Beginnings
As the calendar turns and we bid farewell to the old year, we gather here today to seek blessings for the new year ahead. We come together as a community, joining our voices in a hymn of hope and gratitude. The words of this hymn resonate within our hearts, echoing our desires for the coming year.
“Bless, O Lord, each opening year
To the souls assembling here:
Clothe Thy word with power divine,
Make us willing to be Thine.”
In these few lines, we find the essence of our collective prayer. We ask for divine intervention, for the words we hear and read to be filled with power that can transform lives. More importantly, we ask for the willingness to surrender ourselves to the greater purpose, to be instruments of positivity and righteousness.
Just as each year brings with it a fresh start, so too does it provide an opportunity for personal growth and transformation. It is a chance to leave behind the mistakes and regrets of the past, and to embrace the future with a renewed vigor. This concept resonates with us, regardless of age. Whether young or old, the turning of the year holds significance for all.
“Where Thou hast Thy work begun,
Give new strength the race to run;
Scatter darkness, doubts, and fears,
Wipe away the mourner’s tears.”
As we embark on this new chapter, we seek strength from above to pursue our goals and dreams. We acknowledge that life’s journey is not always easy, and obstacles may present themselves along the way. However, we have faith that with divine guidance, we can overcome any darkness, doubt, or fear that may assail us.
In our assembly, we gather people from all walks of life, each carrying their unique stories and experiences. The hymn reminds us that we are all part of a greater whole, and our unity can bring forth a symphony of praise. Whether we are young or old, we are called upon to contribute, to lend our voices to the chorus of gratitude and praise.
“Bless us all, both old and young;
Call forth praise from every tongue:
Let our whole assembly prove
All Thy power and all Thy love!”
As we come together in worship, may we be reminded of the power and love that unites us. Let our presence here today be a testament to the divine grace and mercy that sustains us. May this new year be filled with moments of joy, love, and peace for each and every one of us.
As we conclude our hymn, we look ahead to the days, weeks, and months to come. The new year stretches before us like an open canvas, ready to be filled with the colors of our hopes and dreams. Let us go forth with confidence, knowing that we have been blessed and that the hand of the divine guides our every step.
In this moment, we stand on the precipice of the future, ready to embrace all that it has to offer. As we carry the words of this hymn in our hearts, let us remember that we are not alone on this journey. Together, we can face whatever challenges lie ahead, and together, we can create a year filled with blessings and new beginnings.
May this new year be a testament to our faith, our unity, and our unwavering belief in the power of the divine. Let us go forth from this place, with hearts full of gratitude and hope, ready to make the most of each and every day. And may our collective prayer be answered, as we become willing servants, ready to embrace the blessings of the new year.
