Now Comes The Spring
I peeked outside my door today
and saw some children hard at
play.
I didn't know that Spring had
come;
so long I'd been inside my home.
The Winter chill had got me
down,
and for some time I'd worn a
frown.
But when I saw the kids at play,
it seemed my frown just slipped
away.
When stepping on my porch I felt
that soon all Winter blues would
melt.
Across the street I saw a child
picking flowers that were wild.
They were just growing by the
street,
and as she picked, her smile was
sweet.
It touched my heart and all I
thought
was what great wonders God
has wrought!
When you feel lonely, when you
feel blue
by Winter's breath that rushes
through,
always remember, when you can't
sing,
in time The Lord will send the
Spring.
