In entering the New Year
Teach me, O Lord, Thy way,
From one day to another
Be Thou my Guide and Stay.
For “I will go before thee”
Is God’s own precious Word,
“I will direct and guide thee,”
His promises we’ve heard.
And God’s Word is sufficient,
On this we can rely,
“I will instruct and teach thee,
I’ll guide thee with Mine eye.”
A heart that’s daily seeking
For God’s own will and way,
Will certainly be guided
What step to take each day.
Then trust Him for the future,
The path He will make clear,
Directing, guarding, guiding,
Each new day of the year.
