lyrics
You said let there be light in the heavens
You hung the stars up so high
And you put the fish in the ocean
You put the birds in the sky
I walk through the fields
And see life all around
A carpet of green springing out of the ground
Winter is gone and here is the son
The trees wave goodbye to the winter
Their bare arms stretch out in the air
The snow from the mountains is melting
And flowers appear everywhere
For you are the creator
Of heaven and earth
And spring tells the story
Of hope and new birth
Life must end to bloom once again
La la la la la la la la la la la la
La dum do do na ETC
The chatter of birds in the treetops
The scurry of life on the ground
Rise with the son
Spring has sprung and I feel young
The sleeping ground has awakened
It's the end of a long winter night
The colours of spring wash the shadows away
While the darkness gives way to the light
Spring chases the cold
Of the Norwegian rain
Like love and forgiveness
Heal sadness and pain
The earth is alive and so am I
You hung the stars up so high
And you put the fish in the ocean
You put the birds in the sky
I walk through the fields
And see life all around
A carpet of green springing out of the ground
Winter is gone and here is the son
The trees wave goodbye to the winter
Their bare arms stretch out in the air
The snow from the mountains is melting
And flowers appear everywhere
For you are the creator
Of heaven and earth
And spring tells the story
Of hope and new birth
Life must end to bloom once again
La la la la la la la la la la la la
La dum do do na ETC
The chatter of birds in the treetops
The scurry of life on the ground
Rise with the son
Spring has sprung and I feel young
The sleeping ground has awakened
It's the end of a long winter night
The colours of spring wash the shadows away
While the darkness gives way to the light
Spring chases the cold
Of the Norwegian rain
Like love and forgiveness
Heal sadness and pain
The earth is alive and so am I
