Representative Text

1 Pearly dew drops glisten
Over hill and plain;
Nodding flowers tell us
Easter dawns again;
Fleecy clouds are peeping
From the azure sky;
Happy birds are singing
Praise to God on high.

Refrain:
If the voice of nature
Echoes in God’s praise;
Can we not, His children,
Hearts and voices raise?

2 Streamlets gently murmur
Greetings in their flow;
Joyous bells are chiming
Carols sweet and low;
Golden sunbeams sparkle
Over branches green;
Loving Easter tokens
Everywhere are seen. [Refrain]

3 Nature’s beauties whisper
Of the Saviour’s might;
And His resurrection
In the morning light;
If the voice of nature
Echoes in God’s praise;
Can we not, His children,
Hearts and voices raise? [Refrain]
