Oh, long, long winter,

freeze over our unsureness,

that we may have rest

from all our anxieties.

 

O, longed-for-spring,

warm sun that melts the snow, 

melt away

our feelings of inadequacy.

 

Oh, Promised heat of summer,

cause the love, patience and silence 

deep within us

to grow like no growing season before.

 

Oh, carefree days of autumn,

Take away all that hinders wholesome growth,

keeping the roots of our life nourished 

deep within the light of all life.
