Lyrics
Another year is dawning:
dear master, let it be,
in working or in waiting,
another year for thee:
Another year of mercies,
of faithfulness and grace;
another year of gladness
in the shining of thy face:
Another year of progress,
another year of praise,
another year of proving
thy presence all the days:
Another year of service,
of witness for thy love;
another year of training
for holier work above.
Another year is dawning:
dear master, let it be,
on earth, or else in heaven,
another year for thee.
