Reopening of Rhydymwyn Church after winter flooding and new heating system.

Tune: Rhosymedre

The winter now is gone
And fruit trees are in flower,
A turtle dove is heard,
The sun regains its power;
And now we hear the Saviour say:
"Arise my dear ones, come away!"

We turn our feet to go
Back to the house of God:
The exiles now return
Responding to his Word:
Come unto me all you who roam,
Return ye wanderers, welcome home!

What warmth and cheer we feel
Where once was cold and dead;
Each Christian gathered here
Now joined to Christ the head:
And thence the Spirit's power is given
To raise our thankful praise to heaven.

Revive your Church, O Lord!
Stir up our dwindling fire:
With energising beams
Rekindle our desire
To preach The Gospel far and wide
Proclaiming Christ the crucified.
