Sweetheart SpringA
-
Our Sweetheart Spring came softlyB
Her gliding hands were fireC
Her lilac breath upon our cheeksD
Consumed us with desireC
-
By her our God began to buildE
Began to sow and tillF
He laid foundations in our lovesG
For every good and illF
We asked Him not for blessingA
We asked Him not for painH
Still to the just and unjustI
He sent His fire and rainH
-
-
Sweetheart SummerC
-
We prayed not yet she came to usJ
The silken shining oneK
On Jacob's noble ladderC
Descended from the sunK
She reached our town of Every DayL
Our dry and dusty sodM
We prayed not yet she brought to usJ
The misty wine of GodM
-
-
Sweetheart AutumnN
-
The woods were black and crimsonK
The frost bit flowers were deadO
But Sweetheart Indian Summer cameP
With love winds round her headO
While fruits God given and splendidQ
Belonged to her domainH
Baskets of corn in perfect earR
And grapes with purple stainH
The treacherous winds persuaded herC
Spring Love was in the woodS
Altho' the end of love was hersT
Fruition MotherhoodS
-
-
Sweetheart WinterC
-
We had done naught of serviceJ
To win our Maker's praiseU
Yet Sweetheart Winter came to usJ
To gild our waning daysU
Down Jacob's winding ladderC
She came from Sunshine TownV
Bearing the sparkling morningsW
And clouds of silver brownV
Bearing the seeds of SpringtimeX
Upon her snowy seasY
Bearing the fairy star flowersT
For baby Christmas treesY
