There it is... the road.
the road to a new year
ready for us to take our
first steps into all it's
possibilities Of prosperity

Yet, we must keep in mind
spectators await by the roadside
Some to root us on our way and
some to pretend as they hide obstacles
in the pathways of our journeys

We'll travel mountains of trials
and valleys of tribulations that will
build our faith and strengthen
our determination

There it is... the road
the road to a new year of
lessons to learn from and
opportunities for us to forgive
and be forgiven and to mend broken
families and friend's fences

There it is...the road
The road to a new year with
twists and bends and dead ends

Loved ones we'll gain
and some, sadly we'll lose.
but with authentic love and
understanding we'll help each other
get through.

There it is...the road
the road to a new year
less than a day ahead of us

There'll be choices for us to make
that'll lead us to chances to Do
and Be better, than we were
the previous year.

I pray we all make the right ones
and be blessed throughout the year.
