Of the opening year, Words of comfort meet us, Hushing ev-'ry fear;
Be thou not a-fraid! I will keep and strengthen, Be thou not dismay'd!
O, what rich supplies! For the poor and need-y Living streams shall rise
He will not for-sake; His e ter-nal cov-e-nant He will nev-er break!

Spoken thro' the silence By our Father's voice, Tender, strong and faithful, Making us rejoice. Yea, I will uphold thee With My own right hand! Thou art call'd and chosen In My sight to stand." For the sad and sinful Shall His grace abound; For the faint and feeble Perfect strength be found. Resting on His prom-ise, What have we to fear? God is all-suf- fi-cient For the com-ing year.

CHORUS.

Onward then, and fear not, Children of the day!

For His word shall never, Nev-er pass a- way.
