Awake, O Earth!

WORTHIE H. HOLDEN
Awake, O Earth, in ecstasy With the return of spring! Break forth in joyous melody, Let loud hosannas ring!
Thy verdant banners swift unfurl To greet the balmy days When eager blooms their folds uncurl, And songsters tune their praise.
The fragrance is thy incense sweet, The songs a chorus grand, Thy verdure is a garment meet, Fresh from thy Maker’s hand.
For spring’s return is earnest blest Of that eternal day When lives and hopes which now must rest Shall wake to bloom for aye.
