     Rosemary's Blessing of The Week

     Another fresh new year is here …
         Another year to live!
    To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
         To love and laugh and give!

    This bright new year is given me
         To live each day with zest …
    To daily grow and try to be
         My highest and my best!

    I have the opportunity
         Once more to right some wrongs,
    To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
         And sing more joyful songs!
