I always want to listen to this song at this time of year. The song is called "Every Season" and it is written and performed by a Christian artist - Nicole Nordeman. She told the story behind the writing of this song at a concert I was at: She wrote it and sang it at the funeral of a friend's husband who had died from brain cancer. She wanted to show how God continues recreating us and how we can still see God in each of the seasons and throughout all His creation, even during "the death" of Winter. My favorite verse in the song is Spring. Here are the lyrics:
"And everything that’s 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"
