A Happy Easter to you all!

I Believe in Springtime

by John Rutter, sung by The Cambridge Singers

I believe in springtime: fresh and new and bright;

I believe in morning dew and shining morning light.

I believe in sunbeams. Melting all the snow;

And I believe in when winters done the streams will run and rivers flow.

I believe in eagles soaring up so high;

I believe in trees and mountains reaching to the sky.

I believe in green things; all the gifts of earth;

Growing up from tiny seeds that spring has brought to birth.

I believe in summer; I believe in fall:

But most of all I believe in God who made it and blessed it all.

I believe in people living all as one;

Sharing all their songs and laughter, happiness, and fun;

I believe in friendship: taking time to care;

And feeling sure of someone else, and someone feeling glad you’re there.

Then I start to wonder how it all might be

if the world could live together just like you and me.

I believe in hoping; I believe in prayer;

I believe in trying hard, and learning how to share.

I believe in dreaming; and when dreams are through,

Then I believe in trusting God to help me make dreams come true.
