Another Year is Dawning
Author: Frances R. Havergal Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 177 hymnals Topics: Salvation New Year First Line: Another year is dawning! Lyrics: 1. Another year is dawning!
Dear Father, let it be,
In working or in waiting,
Another year with Thee:
Another year of leaning
Upon Thy loving breast,
Another year of trusting,
Of quiet, happy rest.
2. Another year of mercies,
Of faithfulness and grace;
Another year of gladness
In the shining of Thy face.
Another year of progress,
Another year of praise,
Another year of proving
Thy presence all the days.
3. 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. Used With Tune: EDENGROVE

The Old Year now Hath Passed Away
Author: Johannes Steuerlein, 1546-1613 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Topics: New Year Lyrics: 1 The old year now hath passed away,
We thank Thee, O our God, today,
That Thou hast kept us through the year,
When danger and distress were near.
2 We pray Thee, O Eternal Son,
Who with the Father reign’st as One,
To guard and rule Thy Christendom
Through all the ages yet to come.
3 Take not Thy saving Word away,
Our souls’ true comfort, staff, and stay;
Abide with us and keep us free
From errors, following only Thee.
4 Oh, help us to forsake all sin,
A new and holier course begin;
Mark not what once was done amiss;
A happier, better year be this,
5 Grant us this year to live in Thee
Or die if so Thy will shall be,
To rise again when Thou shalt come,
And enter our eternal home.
6 There shall we thank Thee, and adore,
With all the angels evermore;
Lord Jesus Christ, increase our faith
To praise Thy Name through life and death.
Amen.

O God, Our Help in Ages Past
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1719 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,239 hymnals Topics: Occasional Services New Year Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home:
2 Under the shadow of your throne
your saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is your arm alone,
and our defense is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood
or earth received its frame,
from everlasting you are God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages in your sight
are like an evening gone,
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever rolling stream,
soon bears us all away;
we fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
still be our guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home! Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

We trust in Thee;
In all the past, through all our hopes and fears,
Thy hand we see.
With each new day, when morning lifts the veil,
We own Thy mercies, Lord, which never fail.
2 God of the past, our times are in Thy hand;
With us abide.
Lead us by faith to hope's true Promised Land;
Be Thou our guide.
With Thee to bless, the darkness shines as light,
And faith's fair vision changes into sight.
3 God of the coming years, through paths unknown
We follow Thee;
When we are strong, Lord, leave us not alone;
Our refuge be.
Be Thou for us in life our Daily Bread,
Our heart's true Home when all our years have sped.

Now a new year opens
Author: Rev. Samuel C. Clarke Meter: 6.5 Appears in 40 hymnals Topics: The New Year Lyrics: 1 Now a new year opens,
Now we newly turn
To the holy Saviour,
Lessons fresh to learn.
2 This the holy lesson
On the year's first day;
Jesus by obedience
Teaches to obey.
3 Of Thy cross thus early,
Tokens Thou dost give;
By Thy wounds Thou healest;
By Thy death we live.
4 Not to suffer only,
Jesus, didst Thou come,
But to leave us way-marks
Pointing to our home.
5 In Thy blessed footsteps
Ever may we tread;
Safe when keeping near thee,
By Thy Spirit led.
Amen. Used With Tune: [Now a new year opens]

This Is a Day of New Beginnings
Author: Brian Wren Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Seasons The New Year; Year A New Year; Year B New Year; Year C New Year Lyrics: 1 This is a day of new beginnings,
time to remember and move on,
time to believe what love is bringing,
laying to rest the pain that's gone.
2 For by the life and death of Jesus,
God's mighty Spirit, now as then,
can make for us a world of difference,
as faith and hope are born again.
3 Then let us, with the Spirit's daring,
step from the past and leave behind
our disappointment, guilt, and grieving,
seeking new paths, and sure to find.
4 Christ is alive, and goes before us
to show and share what love can do.
This is a day of new beginnings -
our God is making all things new.
*4 (for Holy Communion)
In faith we'll gather 'round the table
to taste and share what love can do.
This is a day of new beginnings -
our God is making all things new. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:16-17 Used With Tune: BEGINNINGS

New Year's Hymn
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: New Year First Line: O Lord, by thy supporting hand Lyrics: 1 O Lord, by thy supporting hand,
We enter on another year;
And now we meet at thy command,
To seek thy gracious presence here.
2 Have mercy on our num'rous youth,
Who young in years are old in sin;
and by thy spirit and thy truth,
Shew them the state their souls are in.
3 Then, by a Saviour's dying love
To ev'ry wounded heart reveal'd,
Temptations, fears, and guilt remove,
And be their sun, and strength, and shield.
4 To mourners speak a cheering word,
On seeking souls vouchsafe to shine;
Let poor backsliders be restor'd,
And all thy saints in praises join.
5 O hear our pray'r and give us hope,
That when thy voice shall call us home,
Thou still wilt raise a people up,
To love and praise thee in our room.
