MIRACULOUS EASTER

If amazed and awestruck this time of year,
You're not alone, that's perfectly clear.

Spring brings forth buds all over the place,
Surely Easter doth brighten society's face.

Can't help but picture an ole wooden cross,
An innocent suffering for the guilty and lost.

Jesus lowered Himself to be raised on a cross,
Laid down His life; took it up at great cost.

With nails in His hands and a nail in His feet,
Christ Jesus is crucified, belittled, and beat.

But! Third day of crucifixion, angels are singing,
"Christ Has Risen from the dead"; Heaven is ringing.

Neither disease nor death can touch Him again,
Living eternally is God's Son, the Son of Man.

Humans can now meet the dawn with song,
God promises double relief for whatever goes wrong.

Father, Son, Holy Ghost, thy heart with comfort filling,
Fear not little children, your sorrow God is stilling!
