[Verse 1]

Winter held the branches
Beneath a sky of gray

The world seemed wrapped in silence
Waiting for a different day

The shadows stretched for miles
The stars were hidden still

And every heart kept searching
Beyond the distant hill

[Refrain]

The seed could not see spring
But spring was coming still

What looked like empty ground
Was potential waiting to fulfill

The night could hide the sunrise
Behind the distant hill

But dawn was drawing nearer
Beyond the darkness still


[Verse 2]

The wind may shake the branches
And strip the leaves away

But roots that hold through winter
Will bloom another day

The frost may claim the meadow
The cold may touch the stone

Yet life beneath the surface
Is stronger than it’s known

[Refrain]

The seed could not see spring
But spring was coming still

What looked like empty ground
Was potential waiting to fulfill

The night could hide the sunrise
Behind the distant hill

But dawn was drawing nearer
Beyond the darkness still

[Bridge]

No one sees tomorrow
While standing in the rain

No one sees the harvest
While planting through the pain

But every field of flowers
And every mighty tree

Began as something fragile
Too small for eyes to see

[Final Chorus]

The seed could not see spring
But spring was coming still

What looked like empty ground
Was potential waiting to fulfill

The night could hide the sunrise
Behind the distant hill

But dawn was drawing nearer
Beyond the darkness still

After the darkness
After the night

After the tears
Comes the morning light

A seed for tomorrow
Reaching for the sun

And what seemed lost forever
Has only just begun

[Outro]

The seed could not see spring
But spring was coming still

What looked like empty ground
Was potential waiting to fulfill

After the darkness
Hope breaks through

After the darkness
Life breaks through
