Happy New Year ahead

because of the sacrifice

and receiving eternal life

by accepting Christ. 



Happy New Year ahead

because you are prepared

by accepting God’s Plan

and what you’ve declared.



Happy New Year ahead

because of what has begun

which is only the beginning

of what is to come.



Happy New Year ahead;

No need to fret

or be extremely upset

over what you don’t get.



Happy New Year ahead

because to God you pray

and as long as God is first,

second is okay.



Happy New Year ahead

because of God’s grace 

and gaining the strength

to finish the race.



Happy New Year ahead

because you go onward

getting closer and closer 

to the ultimate reward.
