Seasons of the Sinner

When soft sudden bursts of buds begin 
and Spring sputters sprouts of golden green,
I look to you with reverence and pray; 
you are my Savior, my Spring day.

When sultry sunlight scorches the sand 
and Summer sweltering dog days’ land,
I welcome you with outstretched arm; 
you are my Savior, my Summer charm.

When wild whistling winds whirl into town 
and Autumn leaves have all blown down,
I ask your guidance as supplicant sinner; 
you are my Savior, my Autumn mentor.

When waxen whispers wane through the air 
and Winter chilling cold seems not to care,
I hear your voice with grateful ear; 
you are my Savior, my Winter cheer.
