Welcome the Holy Grace of Spring
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Self-existing and Eternal One, the people He has elected for His inheritance.” (Psalms 33:12).
Welcome spring, where flowers and leaves stir hearts awake,
Welcome spring, where drifting clouds and winds partake.
Bees and butterflies in playful chase take flight,
While spring’s rich fragrance fills the air just right.
Joy fills our homeland as spring’s arrival nears,
Each corner bright as nature’s grace appears.
Welcome spring that blooms in hearts so pure and true,
Welcome spring, with God’s love fresh as morning dew.
Holy blessings flow to homes both far and near,
God’s grace abundant as the spring draws near.
Across Vietnam, the joyous welcome rings,
As hearts unite in praise of what spring brings.
At spring’s beginning, New Year’s hopes arise,
Peace for every home beneath these skies.
People’s laughter mingles with spring air,
God’s blessings overflow beyond compare,
In every household, joy cannot contain
The gifts of grace that spring brings once again.
Welcome spring’s holy grace that lights our way,
Welcome spring’s deep affection day by day.
Near and far, each home joins in spring’s dance,
United in this season’s sweet romance.
While through our homeland, celebration songs
Echo spring’s joy to which each heart belongs.
