| Lyrics: | FLOWER CAROL
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 trough the mould,
Now make up
for lost time.
Herb and plant that, winter long,
Slumbered at their
leisure,
Now bestirring, green and strong,
Find in their growth a pleasure:
Gold the
green enhancing;
Flowers make glee among the hills,
And set the meadows
dancing.
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.
Earth puts
on her dress of glee;
Flowers and grasses hide her;
We go forth in charity,
Brothers
all beside her;
For, as man this glory sees,
In the awakening season,
reason learns
the heart's decrees,
And hearts are lead by reason.
Praise the Maker, all ye
saints;
He with glory girt you,
He who skies and meadows paints,
Fashioned by your
virtue;
Praise hi, seers, heroes, kings,
Heralds of perfections;
Brothers, praise
him, for he brings
All to resurrection!
