THE TURNING

lightly as the snow

we will turn again

our old hearts to win

from the persistent slough

anyway, anyhow

make a Springtime vow

in the biting wind

never to pretend

hope cant bloom again

Christ was sent to show

in the deepest woe

we can turn again

we can turn again

under a sky of Light!

in the bitter night

lightly as the snow

leaving all we know

welcoming Him in.

everything to mend!
