('Now is eternal life')
Psalm 104 v.24
**********
See now, Spring is springing!
Earth with colours does ring
Snowdrops, you not dismay
New growth is on it way
Daffodils, raise your yellow heads
All bright arrayed in flower beds
Trees blossom, pink and white
'Tis of new life a sight
Sweet crocuses there be
And too more greenery
Some ordained evergreen to stay
They part of Nature's fine display
Sun's warmth to clear the chill
Daily course does fulfil
And rain to water ground
That produce may abound
Around and around, life's cycle
Who does into being it call?
Here trust, God, Creator
And we His creatures be
Humans, each of them made
In His image arrayed
Crowning point of His creation
His forming of each woman, man
Grant us grace, Lord, that we
Do care-take constantly
Of your creation, how
Many your works seen now!
In wisdom have you made them all
The earth is with your riches full
