1. When winter is over and spring is begun, | |||
When nature is warmed by the rays of the sun, | |||
Our prospects are raised by the opening year, | |||
And fruits are expected when blossoms appear. | |||
2. Our fond expectations thus bear us away, | |||
When beautiful prospects our eyes still survey; | |||
But sudden, a dreadful and untimely frost | |||
Restores winter's gloom and our hopes are all lost.}} | |||

3. Just so in a season when conscience awakes, | |||
Calls loudly to sinners their crimes to forsake, | |||
Tis then, that with pleasing emotion we trace | |||
The tears of the mourner adorning each face. | |||
4. But O! in the midst of this pleasing delight, | |||
We look for the fruit, but it's snatched from the sight; | |||
Some fatal temptation conviction destroys, | |||
And cut off the hope which had promised us joy.}} | |||
