Hopeful we are for two thousand and five
All of us are grateful to be alive
People now is the time for new resolutions
Problems abound but we can find solutions
Year end is a good time to sit back and reflect

No one is always right and none of us perfect
Everyone must learn to live side by side
Whoever you are or where you reside

Yes now is the time to celebrate life
Every heart praying for an end to strife
Auld Lang Syne is sung as the old year ends
Rejoice and be merry with foes and with friends
