My wish for all this New Year's night
is a life of joy, full of delight
May you never know pain or despair
And may happiness greet you everywhere
May those who seek to do you ill
their plans be foiled, have a change of will
May your wounded heart learn to forgive
May your dying soul find strength to live
May those in turmoil soon find peace
The unjustly accused find sweet release
May the widow who mourns, weep no more
May the people arise, and put an end to war
May the new year bring to the deserving justice
The killer, the thief, the selfish, the gutless
Let them be cast down from their places high
to wander naked and thirsty in deserts dry
Let the poor be rich and the rich made humble
May you find your way and never stumble
May your path be bright, where'er you trod
May you always be led by the Spirit of God
