Here's an excellent poem on a new year with the Lord.
Another year is dawning;
dear Father, let it be,
In working or in waiting,
another year with thee.
Another year of progress,
another year of praise,
Another year of proving
Thy presence all the days.
Another year of service,
of witness for thy love;
Another year of training
for holier work above.
Another year is dawning;
dear Father, let it be,
On earth, or else in heaven,
another year for thee.

Thanks for posting Frances Havergal's new year's hymn Jason. She wrote another as well, called "Standing at the Portal." Both are great for personal meditation, and for church services at this time of year.
