Dear Lord, You Have Granted Another Year
Dear Lord, you have granted
Everyone of us another New Year.
From your Seed we were planted
And we have no need to fear.

We are saved by Your Holy Grace
We are redeemed by your only Son.
We are directed by You to see Your face.
For we know your will is always done.

Dear Lord, we give You honor and praise
You are our only God, no other could be.
We love You Lord, when we die you raise
Which can only be done by faith in Thee.

We are excited worshipping You to no end
Because only You are our heavenly timekeeper.
We thank You Lord, also for being our best friend
And for protecting us always from the grim reaper.

There is no doubt in our minds about You
For inside of our hearts you will always live.
That's why all of what I've written is true
You've granted a New Year only You can give.
