L. ANOTHER YEAR.

Another year has passed away
With ceaseless flight of day by day;
Now lightly winged with happy cheer,
Now drooping with regret and fear,
Now sadly dim, now gladly gay.
Up the swift stream in thought I stray,
And on its marge a moment stay,
Then leave, with praises in God's ear,
Another year.
Onward once more I plod my way,
And as the New Year looms, I pray—
Lord, only let Thy will be clear,
Thy Truth be loved, Thy Presence near,
Peace will be with me, come what may,
Another year.
