MY WINTER’S PAST

As spring the winter does succeed,

And leaves the naked trees do dress,

The earth all black is clothed in green;

At sunshine each their joy express.

My sun’s returned with healing wings.

My soul and body do rejoice;

My heart exults and praises sings

To You who heard my wailing voice.

My winter’s past, my storms are gone,

And former clouds now seem all fled;

But, if they must eclipse again,

I’ll run where I was amply fed.

I have a shelter from the storm,

A shadow from the fainting heat;

I have access unto Your throne

You who are God so wondrous great.
