Another Year Is Dawning

Welcome the New Year with this Christian Hymn

Another Year Is Dawning! Dear Father, let it be... What a hymn to sing to our Father in Heaven on the eve of a New Year. A prayer unto God for whom nothing is impossible. A hymn to beseech our heavenly Father for a good year ahead; a year of resting and trusting, of praise for His mercies and faithfulness, and of service to Him. Let this be our heartfelt prayer too as we look forward to another year with the Lord.

Another Year Is Dawning

Lyrics ~ Frances R. Havergal, 1836 -1879
Music ~ Samule S. Wesley, 1810 - 1876

Stanza 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;

Stanza 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;

Stanza 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.
