A NEW YEAR’S WISH
'To know the love of Christ, that passeth knowledge.'
To know by surest inner sight
The love that ‘passeth being known’;
To know that this, the Infinite,
Is yet for evermore our own:
As gentle as the falling dew,
Stronger than mightiest waves are strong,
New, as each opening day is new
Old as the eternal years are long!
Wider than heaven’s blue above
The stars that most remotely shine;
Nearer than human looks of love
That are but gleams of the Divine.
To know that love, most tender, true,
Closer than earthly ties most dear—
This be the blessing ever new
To gladden this and every year.
A Happy New Year to all!
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear.
