Midwinter

(Woods Trail by Tad Retz)

(Forest Moment by Tad Retz)

On the earth when deep snows lie

Still the sun is in the sky,

And when most we miss his fire

He is ever drawing nigher.

In the darkest winter day

Thou, God, art not far away;

When the nights grow colder, drearer,

Father, thou art coming nearer!

~George MacDonald
