Happy New Year!

Thank You, Father, for creating all;
thank You, Jesus, for dying for us;
and thank you, Holy Spirit of God,
for helping us do the things we must. 

Please pour out Your blessings in 2003,
and help us draw nearer to You.
And take us home, Lord, to be with You,
when our time on this earth is through!

 And please protect our homeland, dear Lord,
and spread Your holy angels ‘round.
And keep us safe within Your arms,
until the final trumpet sounds!
