Divine Renewer, Thee I bless; I greet Thy going forth: I love Thee in the loveliness Of Thy renewed earth. 2. But O these wonders of Thy grace, These nobler works of Thine, These marvels sweeter far to trace, These new births more divine, This newborn glow of faith so strong, This bloom of love so fair, This newborn ecstasy of song And fragrancy of prayer! 3 Creator, Spirit, work in me These wonders sweet of Thine, Divine Renewer, graciously Renew this heart of mine. Still let new life and strength up-spring, Still let new joy be given; And grant the glad new song to ring Thro' the new earth and heav'n. Used With Tune: SERAPH

Author: Dr. Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Appears in 376 hymnals Topics: Spring Lyrics: 1 Eternal Source of every joy, Well may Thy praise our lips employ, While in Thy temple we appear, Whose goodness crowns the circling year. 2 The flowery spring, at Thy command, Embalms the air, and paints the land; The summer rays with vigour shine, To raise the corn, and cheer the vine. 3 Thy hand in autumn richly pours Through all our coasts redundant stores; And winters, softened by Thy care, No more a face of horror wear. 4 Seasons, and months, and weeks, and days, Demand successive songs of praise; Still be the cheerful homage paid With opening light, and evening shade. 5 Here in Thy house shall incense rise As circling Sabbaths bless our eyes; Still will we make Thy mercies known Around Thy board, and round our own. 6 O may our more harmonious tongue In worlds unknown pursue the song; And in those brighter courts adore, Where days and years revolve no more.

In the bulb there is a flower

Author: Natalie Allyn Wakeley Sleeth (1930-1992) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Spring Lyrics: 1 In the bulb there is a flower; in the seed, an apple tree; in cocoons, a hidden promise: butterflies will soon be free! In the cold and snow of winter there's a spring that waits to be, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. 2 There's a song in every silence, seeking word and melody. There's a dawn in every darkness, bringing hope to you and me. From the past will come the future, what it holds, a mystery, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. 3 In our end is our beginning; in our time, infinity; in our doubt there is believing: in our life, eternity. In our death, a resurrection; at the last, a victory, unrevealed until its season, something God alone can see. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:42-44 Used With Tune: HYMN OF PROMISE
