Happy New Year to all and to all a Godly 2021

From: Paul Gage



Happy New Year to all and to all a Godly 2021

In the "Sixty Days Toward Zion" daily guide, the following was our hymn of the day. 
Suggested scriptures were Psalm 23, 71 and 125:1-2.

Standing At The Portal  by Frances Ridley Havergal

Standing at the portal                        Of the opening year,
Words of comfort meet us,                Hushing every fear;
Spoken thru the silence                     By our Savior’s voice,
Tender, strong and faithful,              Making us rejoice.

Refrain

Onward, then, and fear not,            Children of the day;
For His Word shall never,               Never pass away.

“I, the Lord, am with thee,               Be thou not afraid;
I will help and strengthen                 Be thou not dismayed.
Yea, I will uphold thee                       With My own right hand;
Thou art called and chosen               In My sight to stand.”

Refrain

For the year before us,                      O what rich supplies!
For the poor and needy                     Living streams shall rise;
For the sad and sinful                       Shall His grace abound;
For the faint and feeble                    Perfect strength be found.

Refrain

He will never fail us,                                      He will not forsake;
For His eternal covenant                              He will never break.
Resting on the promise,              What have we to fear?
God is all sufficient                      For the coming year.


Refrain


In Christ
Paul Gage
