I vårens tid, o Fader blid, vi ödmjukt till dig komma. Nu hör vår sång på kyrkogång bland Din församlings fromma. Se likt en brud i blommors skrud i dag all jorden prålar! Och himmelns ljus in i Guds hus med nåd och glädje strålar. Vi tacka Dig så innerlig, att Du vår väg beredde till templets famn! I Jesu namn vår barndoms steg Du ledde. Dig vare pris, som paradis har öppnat för oss alla! I livets vår nu våra år Dig saligt vi befalla.
