A song of spring once more we sing
As winter flies away,
And changeful hours
bring sun and showers
To weave a crown for May;
With heart and voice we all rejoice,
On this returning day.
For once again the promise-strain
Floats down from days of yore,
That fruits of earth shall wake to birth,
To bless the toiler’s store;
Each annual round
with bounties crowned,
Till time shall be no more.
Thee, Lord, we praise
for springtide days,
And life’s yet fairer spring;
These golden hours,
these opening powers,
We in glad service bring,
Thine own to be, from sin set free,
Our Father, Savior, King.
