WHEN THE SNOW COMES DOWN

When the snow comes down, There’s a silence as of prayer; There’s a blessing in the air; There’s a stillness everywhere— Over landscapes brown, Over woodlands bleak and sere, Over orchards dull and drear, Over valleys far and near— When the snow comes down,
When the snow comes down, There’s a hint of heaven’s own; There’s a purity outblown; There’s a hush as of the throne— Of the palm and crown, Of the home we yet shall know; Of the joys that overflow; Of the hopes that upward go— When the snow comes down.
When the snow comes down, There’s the beauty of our God On the thorn and hazelrod, On the pine-tree and the sod, On the field and town; And we know that while the air Throbs with whiteness everywhere, God reveals His mercy there— When the snow comes down.
