New Seeds by Clara Barnes Costner
A worker in God’s vineyard
Dreamed of equality for all mankind
Uplifting conditions of all people
Is what he had in mind
Reminding us to continue
Along the brightly lit way
Without resenting others
Peaceful, always remember to pray
Move on without bitterness
No room in our hearts for hate
Carry ourselves with dignity
Continue to pray and wait
There will be times of dissatisfaction
Know that we are never alone
God gives us hope, and our faith grows
The seeds have already been sown
And as the New Year begins
Be kind, loving, and true
If things don’t go your way
Stay focused, every morning is new

“If you can’t fly, then run,
If you can’t run, then walk
If you can’t walk, crawl
But by all means, keep moving.”
Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
