Author: Arthur Christopher Benson, 1852-1925 Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #47 (2004) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The spring again is here,
life wakes from winter's gloom;
in field and forest far and near
sweet opening flowerets bloom.
2 O mystery strange and sweet,
that life so dumbly bound
should rise, our thankful gaze to greet,
and break from underground.
3 The morn is fresh and bright,
the slow dark hours depart:
let days unstained and pure delight
bring sunshine to the heart.
4 Lord, touch our careless eyes,
new life, new ardour bring,
that we may read Your mysteries,
the wonder of Your spring. Topics: Creation Seasons of the Year Languages: English Tune Title: SANDYS
