What would I ever do without You.
And I thank God for knowing You
It’s a New Year
Come in it’s spectacular fashion
Holding little or nothing
But depending on me and
I on you Lord, and so I pray
Guide me through my stupidity
Lead me through my foolishness
Take me through my laziness
Hold me through my trials
Sail me through to my triumphs
And above all
Help me reverence you through the years
Thank you so much
