Though Cloudy Skies and Northern Blasts

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11927 Lyrics: 1 Though cloudy skies and northern blasts Retard the gentle spring awhile; The sun will conqueror prove at last, And nature wear a vernal smile. 2 The promise which from age to age, Has brought the changing seasons round; Again shall calm the winter’s rage, Perfume the air, and paint the ground. 3 The virtue of that first command, I know still does, and will prevail; That while the earth itself shall stand, The spring and summer shall not fail. 4 Such changes are for us decreed; Believers have their winters too; But spring shall certainly succeed, And all their former life renew. 5 Winter and spring have each their use, And each, in turn, his people know; One kills the weeds their hearts produce, The other makes their graces grow. 6 Though like dead trees awhile they seem, Yet having life within their root, The welcome spring’s reviving beam Draws forth their blossoms, leaves, and fruit. 7 But if the tree indeed be dead, It feels no change, though spring return, Its leafless, naked, barren head, Proclaims it only fit to burn. 8 Dear Lord, afford our souls a spring, Thou know’st our winter has been long; Shine forth, and warm our hearts to sing, And Thy rich grace shall be our song.
