95   Spring Has Now Unwrapped the Flowers




[1]
Spring has now unwrapped the flowers
Day is fast reviving
Life in all her growing powers
Towards the light is striving:
Gone the iron touch of cold
Winter time and frost time
Seedlings working through the mould
Now make up for lost time.

[2]
Herb and plant that winter long
Slumbered at their leisurek
Now bestirring green and strong
Find in growth their pleasure:
All the world with beauty fills
Gold the green enhancing;
Flowers make glee among the hills
Set the meadows dancing.

[3]
Through each wonder of fair days
God Himself expresses;
Beauty follows all His ways
As the world He blesses:
So as He renews the earth
Artist without rival
In His grace of glad new birth
We must seek revival.
