A New Year

I recieved a date planner as a Christmas gift as I was adding birthday's and addresses, this poem was printed for January, so I am going to share it with you.
As the New Year starts and the old year ends, There's no better time to make amends For all the things we sincerely regret And wish in our hearts we could somehow forget--- We all make mistakes, for it's human to err, But no one need ever give up in despair, For God gives us all a brand new beginning, A chance to start over and repent of our sinning-- And when God forgives us, we, to must forgive And resolve to do better each day that we live By constantly trying to be like Him more nearly And to trust in His wisdom and love Him more dearly--- Assured that we've never out of His care, And we'er always welcome to see Him in prayer.
