Another New Year

Another New Year Dr. James E. Martin ©December, 2013 A new year is coming and quickly it does seem Soon it will be twenty fourteen. We know not now what will be in store, Will all be pleasurable or will much we abhor? It is difficult to fathom the amazing speed With which each year the days recede. I guess there is something directly related To more gray hairs that are unabated With the world in chaos and our nation a mess A sad truth most would readily confess. It is now high time that adjustment be made Before the national fabric is further frayed. Will this be the year that this nation will implode? Will we continue to systematically erode? Values that once were common ground Can only with diligence these days be found. Will this be the year that our leaders actually lead? Will they continue our sovereignty to impede? Will this be the year of our Lord’s return? Will many more the truth discern? Will America return to a place of prominence? Will capitalism see socialistic dominance? Will political correctness be finally controlled? Will perverseness be more and more be extolled? Will freedom of speech be completely obliterated? Will religious expression be forever decimated? Many more concerns are on the mind of many As actions and reactions are growing more uncanny. Yes, another year will soon pass from view And memories both bad and good we’ll review. The days before us are quite uncertain Let’s determine to expect a victorious curtain.
