Spring of Sod and Soul (Happy March!)


Okay, in Ontario we are not quite 
at the verses below yet,
but here's hoping, soon! 

See! The winter is past;
the rains are over and gone.
Flowers appear on the earth;
the season of singing has come,

Song of Solomon 2:11-12

 
Just as the warmth of sun can melt cold winter from earth’s slope 
Thus, the kind grace of God can pierce soul’s dark with Light of hope 

And just as spring brings back bud-beauty of the blossomed limb 
So too God replenishes gladness when we trust in Him 

And just as spring whispers deep in the chill of dormant sod 
So too, the heart is reawakened ‘neath the touch of God
