A New Year’s Broom
O God,
You are ever-new
and
forever ageless.
Bless
your people
who live in space
and
time as we begin
a new year.
Make us new.
May this
New Year’s Broom
sweep clean this house
of last year’s grudges
and reservations
and any
residual acts
of unkindness.
Sweep cle an our home
of old dusty routines,
of tired ruts
and dead-end patterns,
which prevent us
from a greater love
of each other and of You.
May this New Year’s Broom
sweep from our hearts
all fears and angry memories
and the pieces of broken dreams.
May our hearts,
now swept clean,
have room
for fresh new dreams,
for all the
beginnings of the new year,
with which you, our God
have gifted us.
Let the New Year
rich with
God’s holy blessings
now come into our lives.
Amen.
Amen
