As Spring blooms all around me
I'm reminded of freedom
Of new birth of new life
Just as in God's Kingdom


The door to heaven opened wide
And a fresh new beginning was felt
Throughout my spirit and body
When at the altar I knelt


As I gave my life to Jesus
My burdens lifted away
I became brand new in Christ
On that miraculously wonderful day






My life has never been the same
Since heaven's doors opened wide
As long as I remember to pray
And to keep Jesus by my side


My Spring has bloomed around me
I am completely free
Since my new beginning
I can just love being me


For I'm a much loved child of God
Loved beyond any measure on earth
All because my beloved Jesus
Died so I could have new birth


Each year I watch Spring bloom
And my heart feels light and free
I'm reminded of God's wonderful love
For all the world...and me
