CIRCLE OF SEASONS
(A Tour of the Church Year)
Verse 1
Faith has its cycle of turning
like the earth has its Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall
There is a time for each season
And the God of Good Blessings is faithful through them all
Refrain
God is with us in the circle of seasons
Circle of seasons, God is with us
Verse 2
The longing of Advent, it calls us
to light candles and wonder and quiet our hearts
Christmas joy celebrates Jesus
in the dazzling light of Epiphany's star
Verse 3
Lent is a season of suffering
We journey with Jesus to the cross where he died
But in just three days he was living
Easter's rebirth Springs forth like butterflies
Bridge
Laughing and waiting, crying and praising
There's a time for every experience of faith
Storms and blue skies, death and new life:
All of these held in God's holy, holy, holy time
Verse 4
Pentecost tells us we're blessed
Touched by the rush of the wild, holy Wind
A spark of God's fire in our hearts
We welcome God's seasons that circle 'round again
