Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CCCXI (1799) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: At length the wish'd for spring is come Lyrics: 1 At length the wish'd for spring is come;
How alter'd is the scene!
The trees and shrubs are drest in bloom,
The earth array'd in green.
2 I see my Saviour from on high,
Break through the clouds and shine!
No creature now more blest than I,
No song more loud than mine.
3 Thy word does all my hope revive,
It overcomes my foes;
It makes my languid graces thrive,
And blossom like a rose.
4 Dear Lord, a monument I stand,
Of what thy grace can do,
Uphold me by thy gracious hand,
Each changing season through.
