The glory of the spring, how sweet\!  
 The newborn life, how glad\!  
 What joy the happy earth to greet  
 In new, bright raiment clad\!

Divine Redeemer, Thee I bless;  
 I greet Thy going forth;  
 I love Thee in the loveliness  
 Of Thy renewed earth\.

But O these wonders of Thy grace,  
 These nobler works of Thine,  
 These marvels sweeter far to trace,  
 These new births more divine:

This new\-born glow of faith so strong,  
 This bloom of love so fair,  
 This new\-born ecstasy of song,  
 And fragrancy of prayer\!

Creator Spirit, work in me  
 These wonders sweet of Thine;  
 Divine Redeemer, graciously  
 Renew this heart of mine\.

Still, let new life and strength upspring,  
 Still, let new joy be given;  
 And grant the glad new song to ring  
 Through the new earth and Heaven\.
