As we begin a brand new year

I pray for all people to see

There really can be peace on earth

But it begins with you and me.

We should always be kind to others

We can extend a helping hand

We should comfort those in sorrow

We can lift those unable to stand.

We should love and help our neighbors

And be a friend to all we meet

No matter our color or background

We’re the same sitting at God’s feet.

God created us all in His image

We should always keep this in mind

Walk His way as we face each day

His decree is for all mankind.

Each one of us can help bring peace

It comes by a change in our heart

By living for God in our daily life

Our example will make a good start.

As we look toward the coming year

Let’s pray God’s guidance for all

For when God is in the hearts of men

Peace will prevail and evil will fall.
