My life is a reflection like a piece of mirrored glass
The sands of time creep on and one day I will pass
From this world to the place of angels and saints
And for the joy of perfect wonder my soul faints
In my life may I reflect on God, reflect with God
May I reflect God himself and shine his eternal light
May I be filled with hope and love and find the strength to fight
What do I mirror and do my words match what shows
Between good and evil in moments of decision I froze
Was I good enough for God and does it even matter
Such doubts cloud my heart and make Him even sadder
The old is gone away and behold a new creation
And the clean start fills my heart with elation
It is a time to reflect on the events of the past year
To count our many blessings and recognize He was here
A time to thank God for all he has graciously given
And to be grateful for another year of livin’
When people look at me do they see the Lord instead
Do I live in a way that follows what Jesus in the Bible said
I pray that each of us would reflect love, peace and truth
That we would support the elderly and build up our youth
May our lives be good examples for our children to follow
That our promises and words would not ring hollow
Let us be careful for our youth are watching carefully
And in all answers great and small let us give them prayerfully
Help us see beyond the surface to the secret place inside
To the ember of life that never dies and where darkness hides
Shine in us shine through us and shine within our hearts today
Help us Lord reflect you more and more each day
