SPRING
I hear the birds twitter and sing
With the first fair breath of Spring.
Love doth a wonderous picture make
For every one who will but take
The bounty from her hand,
In this beautiful flowering land.
With the first fair breath of Spring.
Love doth a wonderous picture make
For every one who will but take
The bounty from her hand,
In this beautiful flowering land.
Spring doth call me,
It makes my soul long to be free
To "bud and blossom as the rose,"
To melt all trace of winter snows,
To rise, to rise into newness of life,
To still the murmur of sorrow and strife.
It makes my soul long to be free
To "bud and blossom as the rose,"
To melt all trace of winter snows,
To rise, to rise into newness of life,
To still the murmur of sorrow and strife.
For me, for me the world is bright
Everything sparkles with color and light,
For love, for love is in my heart,
And I long this joy to impart
And everlasting freshness give
My part of earth, that all may live.
Everything sparkles with color and light,
For love, for love is in my heart,
And I long this joy to impart
And everlasting freshness give
My part of earth, that all may live.
