Mouths Of Babes Spring
Make a joyful noise unto the world
Be you gentle boy or big strong girl
Break the silence with your song, it's the only cure
Make a joyful noise unto the sun
The wind chime orchestra has just begun
Daffodil trumpets proclaim Old Man Winter dead and gone
Life is lived, spring is sprung
Make a joyful noise unto the rain
Bullfrog choirs join in the refrain
Thunder is just a belly laugh at our silly human pain
Make a joyful noise unto the field
Every blade of grass a Zorba, kicking up his heels
The lowing of the calf baptized
By mother's patient tongue
Life is lived, spring is sprung
Make a joyful noise unto the moon
Crying of coyote, howling of the loon
Call out to the one you love, hurry up, it's almost June
Make a joyful noise unto your heart
Whisper secrets to the evening star
Do the best to twinkle in the eye of everyone
Know that every ending makes a space for new life to come
As tiny sticky fingers wrap around my giant calloused thumb
Life is lived, spring is sprung
