No new year resolutions will I make - <br />Nor turn over a new leaf <br />I will not break a promise <br />For in this I'd be a thief. <br />I will not vow before the Lord - <br />And swear words out of hand <br />For breaking them would be to steal; <br />To be with-out the promised land. <br /> <br />I'd rather stand upon what God hath said - <br />And let Him make the changes <br />God can do a better job than I; <br />When my life He rearranges. <br /> <br />So, new year resolutions - <br />I will leave unto the Lord <br />The only new leaf I now turn over <br />Are the pages in God's Word! <br /> <br />'For this is the blood of the NEW covenant' <br /> <br />Matthew 26: 28<br /><br />Richard Merrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/no-new-year-resolutions/
