Happy New Year's Eve!

I said to the man who
stood at the gate of the year,
“Give me a light that I may 
tread safely into the unknown.”
And he replied –
“Go out into the darkness
and put your hand into the
hand of God.
That shall be to you better
than light and safer than
a known way.”

Written by Minnie Louis Haskins
and quoted by King George V1 in his 1939 Christmas broadcast to the British Empire.
