Around the bend—
Close by my side
Will be my Guide,
My faithful Friend!
God's love doth veil
That unknown trail
Around the bend—
But surely He
Will walk with me
To journey's end.
If death draw near, I need not fear For still with me Shall ever be
That last great bend—
My Saviour-Friend.
Or should I rise
To glowing skies.
To meet my Friend,
With Him I'd soar
To Heaven's shore.
Around the bend.
If you would know. Before you go
Around the bend.
That Heaven waits.
With open gates.
Receive this Friend.
—Margaret K. Fraser
The Old Year and The New Into the silent places The old year goes tonight Bearing old pain, old sadness. Old care and old delight. Mistakes and fears and failures. The things that could not last. But naught that e'er was truly ours Goes with him to the past. Out of the silent places The New Year comes tonight; Bringing new pain—new sadness New care and new delight. Go forth to meet him bravely The New Year all untried; The things the old year left us; Faith—Hope and Love—abide!
