When the troubles of each day are always more than we can bear
When our minds spin on the brokenness that seems beyond repair
When each hard-won moment’s peace is wrapped in hours of despair
In the new year
May we find joy again
When the song we’re meant to sing keeps getting stuck inside our throats
And we want to join the chorus but can never find the notes
When the melodies have dried up in the drought that haunts our souls
In the new year
May we sing again
When the losses of our hearts are weighing heavy in our chests
When the absences we know feel like some arbitrary test
When we’ve lost all that we hold to and the world around is cold...
This year may we see the new come bursting from the old.
And when the clocks have rung the death knell on our season of regrets
In the new year
May we know love again.
It’s a new year...
May we begin again.
