95. Spring Has Now Unwrapped the Flowers

Eb         Ab     Eb          Bb       Ab          Bb7 Eb
Spring has now un-wrapped the flowers, Day is fast re-viving,

Eb      Ab      Eb      Bb     Ab                Bb7 Eb
Life in all her growing powers Towards the light is striving:

Eb       Bb7  G        Cm    Ab     Fm7  Bb7 Cm    Ab
Gone the iron touch of cold, Winter time and frost time,

Eb         Ab      Cm          Bb     Eb       Bb7    Cm Ab Eb
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.
