New Year's Eve Eve

As I'm getting my house ready for our New Year's Eve festivities and guests I find myself reflecting on the year.

I think about our family's triumphs and struggles, joys and pain, the ones we loss and the ones we gained. Then I think about friends and family and their celebrations and mourning.  It has been a busy year for so many people in my life.

All this reflection reminded me of my favorite version of Auld lang Syne.  It is called "For all that you have done" by Rend Collective.  

Below are the words.

They resonate in my heart and I will make them my prayer.

Your grace will never be forgot

Your mercy all my life

Will be my source forever song

My story and my light

From mountain top to valley low 

through laughter and through tears

Surely the goodness of my God 

Will follow all the years

For all that you have done for us

for every battle won

We’ll raise a song to bless your heart

For all that you have done

You know our failures and regrets

You always led us home

Redemption’s arm has raised us up

Our triumph in the storm

For all that you have done for us

for every battle won

We’ll raise a song to bless your heart

For all that you have done
