At the beginning of this new year,
we implore God's blessing upon our work
and pray for the needs of this new year of grace.
Throughout all time you have blessed your people, O God,
and dwelt among them.
On the eve of this new year,
inspire and guide us,
that all we do may find in you its beginning and fulfillment. Amen.
from Revised Common Lectionary prayers, Year A, New Year's Day
Thank you that throughout all of time, you have dwelt with your people. Be with us in this New Year, our Lord. Bless our lives, our families, or church, our neighborhoods. Amen.
