Name this choral song? The skylark told it to the robin and the robin told the wren and the wren repeated it to the merry little tit

and the tit told the finch in the lane
and the finch said hush
and told it to the thrush
and I told the whole world then
I told the news, the news, the happy happy news, that Spring had come AGAIN...
That Spring had come again.

Please! Sang it at school in choir but can't find it, even posting ALL those lyrics!

It's called "Spreading the news", possibly by Peter Warlock but I'm not sure.

Petetech - you can test all you like, but I will answer a question that is 3 years old!

I bet OP left MN in a huff that her question went unheard!
