| Delightful harbinger of joys to come | C |
| Of summer's verdure and a fruitful year | D |
| Who bids thee o'er our northern snow fields roam | E |
| And make all gladness in thy bright career | D |
| Lo from the Indian Isle thou dost appear | D |
| And dost a thousand pleasures with thee bring | F |
| But why to us art thou so ever dear | D |
| Bearest thou the hope upon thy radiant wing | F |
| Of Immortality O soft celestial Spring | F |
| - | |
| Yea buds and flowers that fade not they are thine | G |
| And youth renewing balms the sear and old | H |
| Are young and gladsome at thy touch divine | G |
| Thou breath'st upon the frozen earth behold | H |
| Meadows and vales of grass and floral gold | H |
| Green covered hills and leafy mountains grand | I |
| Young life leaps up where all was dumb and cold | H |
| As smoldering embers into flame are fanned | I |
| Or the dead came back to life at the touch of the Savior's hand | I |
| - | |
| The snow clouds fly the canopy of heaven | J |
| The rivulets ripple with the merry tone | K |
| Of wanton waters and the breezes given | J |
| To fan the budding hills are all thine own | K |
| Returning songsters from the tropic zone | K |
| Their vernal love songs in the tree tops sing | F |
| And talk and twitter in a tongue unknown | K |
| Of joys that journey on thy golden wing | F |
| And God who sends thee forth to wake the world O Spring | F |
| - | |
| Emblem of youth enchanting goddess Spring | F |
| Lo now the happy rustic wends his way | L |
| O'er meadows decked with violets from thy wing | F |
| And laboring to the rhythm of song all day | L |
| Performs the task the harvest shall repay | L |
| An hundredfold into the reaper's hand | I |
| What recks the tiller of his toil in May | L |
| What cares he if his cheeks are tinged and tanned | I |
| By thy warm sunshine kiss and by thy breezes bland | I |
| - | |
| Hark to the tinkling bells of grazing kine | K |
| The lambkins bleating on the mountain side | M |
| The red squirrel chippering in the proud old pine | K |
| The pigeon cock cooing to his vernal bride | M |
| O'er all the land and o'er the peaceful tide | M |
| Singing and praising every living thing | F |
| Till one sweet anthem echoed far and wide | M |
| Makes all the broad blue bent of ether ring | F |
| With welcomings to thee God given supernal Spring | F |
