Ecclesiastes 3 by skipt07

Ecclesiastes 3

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to build,

a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance,

a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

a time to search and a time to give up, a time to keep and a time to throw away,

a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak,

a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.
So true! The Turtles sang it well too - Turn, Turn, Turn. =)

And a time to wait hopefully for the arrival of spring.

I love the version by the Byrds from 1965.

@marlboromaam - My favorite Turtles hit was, "It Ain't Me Babe". Thanks for the reminder of a group that played a big part in my years in the Army.

@joysfocus - The Bryds rendition of "Turn, Turn Turn" was my favorite too. The Byrds were one of many groups that impacted my life during my years in the Army.
The song was written by Pete Seeger.
