The year is near its end,
I get up on this day
And look out into the darkness
And see the darkness surrounding,
Surrounding the bright full moon,
Showing me the light,
That light that is at the end of this year.
A year of beauty, wonder and love,
A year full of light as each day I arose
And walked into another day.
The hope is with me
That in the next year
The same will happen
And the light will carry me,
Carry me through yet another year
In the generous life I have,
The generous life I have been given,
To see my world over many years
And hopefully for many more,
For many more years to come.
