I look around, ’tis springtime
I see the glorious sun shine through
It shines from above the treetops
Settles on His creation … makes all things brand new
The radiant colours burst forth
Becoming brighter with each warm ray
This warmth, it fills me with such peaceful awareness
Of my Saviour’s love, this blessed day
For a pureness, it is visible
And the songbirds all agree
That Jesus Christ has risen, is alive
Each little moment, He calls to me
And yet, ’tis really Autumn here
Springtime, it hangs on tight
Showing the preciousness of life created
Giving hope with the Father’s Light
So in every saddened ‘Autumn’ heart
That feels ’tis only time before ‘Winter’ is there
Look close enough and you will see … that the ‘Spring’ and ‘Summer’
Deep within your heart, only need emotions be laid bare
Bare all your sadness, illness, trials
Bare all before the Lord
He will divinely heal and cleanse you
And envelop you with Love’s Cord
