Religion

Happy, because He loves thee!

by Frances Ridley Havergal 1836–1879

From New Year Verses

Religion

Happy, because He loves thee !
Happy, because He lives !
Bright with that deepest gladness
Which only Jesus gives.
Happy, because He guides thee.

Because He cares for thee ;
Happy, ever so happy,
Thus may thy New Year be !
