Oh, Lord, the earth is so beautiful
When springtime comes around.
The magnificent, glorious colors
Are everywhere to be found.
The lilac bush and redbud trees
And dogwoods are all aglow.
The little stream that barely trickled
Is now a steady flow.
The birds serenade so sweetly,
They bring music to my ears.
The grass is alive and green.
I think a little of Heaven is near.
All of Nature comes alive in Spring,
Oh, what a gift from You.
I breathe the clear and fragrant air
And gaze at the sky of blue.
Thank You, God, for the springtime
That I love so very much.
I know that all of the beauty
Was made by Your own touch.
