This prayer, adaptation of "The New Year" by Martha Snell Nicholson, touched me and it is applicable for me, very literally!
"Dear Lord, as this new year is born
I give it to Thy hand
Content to walk by faith what paths
I cannot understand.
Whatever coming days may bring
Of bitter loss, or gain
Or every crown of happiness
Should sorrow come, or pain.
I only ask, loose not my hand
Grip fast my soul, and be
My guiding light upon the path
Till, blind no more, I see!"
