To leave the old with a burst of song,
To recall the right and forgive the wrong;
To forget the thing that binds you fast
To the vain regrets of the year that’s past;
To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the not-worth-while of the days grown old;
To dare go forth with a purpose true
To the unknown task of the world that’s new;
To help your brother along the road
To do his work and life his load;
To add your gift to the world’s good cheer,
Is to have and to give a Happy New Year.
