Spring Is Here
Ellie Holcomb's song celebrates the arrival of spring as a sign of God's renewal of the earth. The lyrics describe the joy of leaving winter behind, with imagery of green trees, blooming flowers, and singing birds. It encourages children to take heart because seasons change, and it connects the beauty of spring to God's creative work, affirming that God is making all things new. The song is simple, cheerful, and filled with gratitude for the natural world as a reflection of God's goodness.
Have you ever grown tired of winter and cold?
You stare out the window, it's getting so old
You can't go outside, you can't go and play
You find yourself dreaming of warm sunny days
Your feet could be bare, your pants could be short
You don't want to be the hibernating sort
So children, take heart, the winter will end
The grass will grow green in the sunshine again
The seasons will change, what joy it'll bring
When we dance to the life-giving song of the spring
Spring has sprung, it's finally here
The trees are green, the sky is clear
The earth is full of a sunny cheer
Spring has sprung, it's finally here
The colorful flowers are in bloom
The warmer days are coming soon
But not as warm as it gets in June
The colorful flowers are in bloom
The birds are singing in the trees
They whistle along with the buzzing bees
The air is full of their melodies
The birds are singing in the trees
Oh. God is making the earth anew
The grass, the trees, the stems, the shoots
The spring will sing the song, it's true
That God is making the earth anew
Oh spring has sprung, it's finally here
The trees are green, the sky is clear
The earth is full of a sunny cheer
Spring has sprung, it's finally here
It's finally here
Oh it's finally here
Spring, spring, spring, spring
Spring is finally here
