95. Spring Has Now Unwrapped the Flowers

Ab         Db     Ab          Eb       Db          Eb7 Ab
Spring has now un-wrapped the flowers, Day is fast re-viving,

Ab      Db      Ab      Eb     Db                Eb7 Ab
Life in all her growing powers Towards the light is striving:

Ab       Eb7  C        Fm    Db     Bbm7 Eb7 Fm    Db
Gone the iron touch of cold, Winter time and frost time,

Ab         Db      Fm          Eb     Ab       Eb7    Fm Db Ab
Seedlings, working through the mould, Now make up for lost time.


[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 1]
Spring has now unwrapped the flowers,
Day is fast reviving,
Life in all her growing powers
Towards the light is striving:
Gone the iron touch of cold,
Winter time and frost time,
Seedlings, working through the mould,
Now make up for lost time.

[Verse 2]
Herb and plant that winter long,
Slumbered at their leisure,
Now be stirring, green and strong,
Find in growth their pleasure:
All the world with beauty fills,
Gold the green enhacing;
Flowers make glee among the hills,
Set the meadows dancing.

[Verse 3]
Through each wonder of fair days
God Himself expresses;
Beauty follows all His ways,
As the world He blesses:
So, as He renews the earth,
Artist without rival,
In His grace of glad new birth
We must seek revival.
