Blessing for a New Year

Remember us, O God;
from age to age
be our comforter.

You have given us
the wonder of time,
blessings in days and nights, seasons and years.

Bless your children at the turning of the year and fill the months ahead with the bright hope that is ours in the coming of Christ.

You are our God, living and reigning, forever and ever. Amen.
