Looking back on this last year

I see the Prince of Peace in each of my memories

Your Presence has filled my spirit with your peace 

Every step of the way

In difficult times, you comforted Me

You held my hand

Turned my tears of sorrow into rainbows

In times of joy, you were my close Companion

Daily your Words permeated my thoughts and life

Making my soul thirst for your righteousness
Your mercy covered each of my failings

Your unfailing Love had no bounds

As I look forward, I am reminded

That you are the same today as yesterday

I can to expect more of the same 

Your mercy, your Love, your faithfulness, your strength

To expect more challenges and trials 

More battles and temptations 

More mercy and love

If consistent in my faith, triumphs 

I also see what is yet to come

Sickness, old age and physical death

However, you promise, life after death

Infinite joy and fullness with you in eternity

You have gone before to prepare a place

I will eventually get to see your Face,

Have fellowship with the Saints and

Experience your Glory

Thank you for transforming my anxieties into faith

May my life glorify You and lead others to Your Kingdom
