the Word that made spring

The long dark night of winter's grip has almost ceased and passed
The dawn of spring, the dawn of sun is come to earth at last

To awaken sleeping soil with it's warmth and with it's light
To fill the earth with energy, with strength, and with might

We too are filled with energy to walk the plan divine
Laid out for all so long ago, the Maker's plan to shine

Good riddance winter's long dark night, whose days are in the past
We turn our faces toward the light and to Your Word hold fast

Your Word never changes, it forever stays the same
You have in fact exalted Your Word above Your name

Your Word went forth before all time and birthed all that we're seeing
Sun, moon, soil and seasons: Your Word brought these to being

As surely as the seasons pass from winter into spring
So it is with Your Word, and to Your Word we cling!
