Happy New Year

Halleluiah choirs of Christmas gone
Are fading with the passing year
Pray, remember those no longer here
Praise life with gleeful, New Year songs
Your heart be light, with Langsyne cheer

New challenges, they come upon
Everyone as time slips on
We come together, hearts on high

Yesteryear again has caroled by
Ending with a sad but joyful sigh
Another year presents itself to all
Reminding us how lucky we are to see the New Year’s ball fall!
