SPRINGTIME. 



INTERMEDIATE. 



Coming from over the mountains, The forests and hills, 

 Filling the rivers and fountains, The brooklets and rills. 



CHORUS : 



Hail, lovely Summer, With sunshine and shower, 

 Thou bringest the seedtime, The bud and the flow'r. 



Meadows and fields now are wearing, Their mantle of green, 

 Fruit trees their sweet blossoms bearing, In beauty are seen. 



CHORUS : 



Birds in the greenwood are singing, In songs sweet and clear, 

 Nature's soft voices are ringing, The springtime is here. 



GOOD MORNING. 



INTERMEDIATE. 



The rosy, rosy morning, 

 Breaks in the eastern sky, 



With golden light adorning, 

 The hill tops far and nigh, 

 The hill tops far and nigh. 



Come when the morning breaketh 

 O'er all the earth along; 



Come when all nature waketh, 

 And sing our morning song, 

 And sing our morning song. 

 Good morning! 



LILY BELLS RING. 



LEAFLET No. II. 



I. 



The lily bells ring in the garden fair, To and fro, soft and low, 

 The violets peep from the grass to share The joy that the bluebirds know. 

 Swing, swing, lily bells, swing, Whispering softly, the winter is past, 

 Ring, ring, joyfully ring, Glorious Springtime has come at last. 



II. 



The buttercups stand in their robes of gold, Bright and gay, bright and gay, 

 The white clover treasures of honey hold, And welcome the happy day. 

 Swing, swing, lily bells, swing, Whispering softly, the winter is past, 

 Ring, ring, joyfully ring, Glorious Springtime has come at last. 



III. 



The children of spring, with their fragrant breath, Bud and flow'rs, hour by hour, 

 Repeat the glad message, there is no death, For life is the only pow'r. 

 Swing, swing, lily bells, swing, Whispering softly, the winter is past, 

 Ring, ring, joyfully ring, Glorious Springtime has come at last.
