Every Season

每回靠近冬天或歲末時,就會想聽這首歌。熊哥哥第一次傳給我聽的時候就好喜歡。彷彿隨著四季流淌,回顧與感恩。

每個人對這首歌的每個季節,應該都會有不同的風景和影像吧,我一直覺得放這個歌應該配合照片,不過心目中的景象,還沒有收齊。那就還是先用想像的吧。



Every Season
     CeCe Winans


Every evening sky, an invitation
To trace the patterned stars
And early in July, a celebration
For freedom that is ours
And I notice You
In children's games
In those who watch them from the shade
Every drop of sun is full of fun and wonder
You are summer

And even when the trees have just surrendered
To the harvest time
Forfeiting their leaves in late September
And sending us inside
Still I notice You when change begins
And I am braced for colder winds
I will offer thanks for what has been and was to come
You are autumn

And everything in time and under heaven
Finally falls asleep
Wrapped in blankets white, all creation
Shivers underneath
And still I notice you
When branches crack
And in my breath on frosted glass
Even now in death, You open doors for life to enter
You are winter

And everything thats new has bravely surfaced
Teaching us to breathe
What was frozen through is newly purposed
Turning all things green
So it is with You
And how You make me new
With every season's change
And so it will be
As You are re-creating me
Summer, autumn, winter, spring
