My 13th Carol

Just some months back it was January

Privileged I was to witness a New Year

And now at the last month I am still here, standing stronger

This end has been indeed better

Each year comes with its own uniqueness

Ups and downs make the climb more challenging

Challenges surmounted make us champions

It was not a smooth sail through

But the faithfulness of my Lord has never waned

Let the thanks pour forth from grateful hearts

Who have climbed the 12 steps of this year and not fallen

While the year had not been without dark clouds

You and I have not drowned in it; the silver lining has sparkled

I sing my carols to the Lord for each of the 12 months

January - my first fresh start; February - I was stabilized balanced

March - The Trinity were there, and in April - good news

Gracefully clothed May-a star was born; June - was Joyous

July - how can I forget the wonderful memory of motherhood

August - lived up to its name; September - the most productive

October - I rep my country Nigeria and November- all shame averted

For obvious reasons December is my favorite- most colorful, well favored

My 13^th carol is the Tejuwrite Blog special thanks to God

A while back we started on the Lord’s command

I thought a nation or two will take notice

But I humbly say tens of nations from all but one continent

Even if no one has read the posts and even if no one had been there to

Commend, encourage or counsel the thanks will not have reduced

And as we look towards the New Year; it is new and so it will be better

With a grateful heart I appreciate God and appreciate you also

Let there be resounding praises from all nations to appreciate The Almighty

As for me, from my very depth I appreciate My Most Loving Father

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord
