The glo­ry of the spring how sweet!
The new-born 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 re­new­èd 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.
