The Waking Earth

The waking earth in springtime
Reminds us it is true
That nothing really ever dies
That is not born anew.
So trust God's all-wise wisdom
And doubt the Father never,
For in His Heavenly Kingdom
There is nothing lost forever.

A Spring Awakening

Spring is God's way,
of speaking to men
and saying, "Through Me
You will live again"
For death is a season
that man must pass through
And, just like the flowers,
God awakens him, too"
