All things made new

Play
Every spring, the breaking forth
of new life from the bitter cold of the winter, is a sign to you.

It tells just how great
the transformation of the world will be, when Jesus comes.

Life abounds, trees bud,
and the birds of the air return with their song of joy.

The world is again filled with teeming life.
Only a brief time before no life seemed possible on a cold winter's night.

So great a transformation of the spiritual things
shall it be in that day of the coming of the Lord.

You would marvel that such a great change could take place.
