1 Winter has a joy for me,
While the Saviour's charms I read,
Lowly meek, from blemish free,
In the snow-drop's pensive head.

2 Spring returns, and brings along
Life invigorating suns;
Hark! the turtle's plaintive song,
Seems to speak his dying groans!

3 Summer has a thousand charms,
All expressive of his worth;
'Tis his sun that lights and warms,
His the air that cools the earth.

4 What, is autumn left to say
Nothing of a Saviour's grace?
Yes, the beams of milder day,
Tell me of his smiling face.

5 Light appears with early dawn,
While the sun makes hast to rise,
See his bleeding beauties drawn
On the blushes of the skies.

6 Ev'ning, with a silent pace,
Slowly moving in the west,
Shews an emblem of his grace,
Points to an eternal rest.

1 Winter has a joy for me,
While the Saviour's charms I read
Lowly, meek, from blemish free,
In the snow-drop's pensive head.

Life-invigorating suns:
Hark! the turtle's plaintive song,
Seems to speak his dying groans!

3 Summer has a thousand charms,
All expressive of his worth;
'Tis his sun that lights and warms,
His the air that cools the earth.

4 What, is autumn left to say
Nothing of a Saviour's grace?
Yes, the beams of milder day
Tell me of his smiling face.

5 Light appears with early dawn;
While the sun makes hast to rise,
See his bleeding beauties drawn
On the blushes of the skies.

6 Evening with a silent pace,
Slowly moving in the west,
Shows an emblem of his grace,
Points to an eternal rest.
