Hear my cry, hear my plea,
This New Year, Jesus please change me.
For I still hurt too easily,
And I have pain, that no one sees.

And so I beg you, hear my cry,
As I moan, grumble and sigh.
Take my ego, take my pride,
And change me from the inside.

This is my New Year's prayer,
To always feel that You're there.
Search me, change me, make me whole,
Restore my heart, my mind and soul.
