God's Concert in the morning with the bird's song on high

Brings great delight to all who hear, as day breaks in the sky

The Blackbird's song to catch his mate is louder than the rest

The stock-doves in the wood above sung as they make their nest.

The weather is so glorious and new lambs in the field

With mothers watching over them graze to increase their yield.

The tulips and the daffodils, magnolia and wallflower,

The green fields and the blossoms show God's heavenly power

For Easter will be coming soon and all The Cross entails

Jesus gave us our everyday when hanging, pinned by nails

But on the Sabbath day of rest He rose again on high,

To give us all a second chance, If we will only try.
