THE RESURRECTION

We hold so close to our hearts
The cross where Jesus died
But so much more than the blood-stained cross
Is that Jesus came back to life

The stone's been rolled away
The tomb lay open and bare
They looked for Him, and then the angel said
That He is no longer here

Oh what joy they must have felt
To see Him just once more
To eat with Him, to drink with Him
To receive Him back as Lord

So much did He accomplish
Through His death upon the cross
And in His rising from the dead
He reconciled us back to God

Nothing else could bridge the gap
That sin had wrenched apart
Now we can freely go to God
And receive Christ in our hearts

Wishing you and and your family a HAPPY EASTER and God's choicest blessings.

Easter Poem

God hath sent His Angels to the earth again,

Bringing joyful tidings to the sons of men.

They who first at Christmas thronged the heavenly way,

Now beside the tomb-door sit on Easter-Day.

Angels, sing His triumph as you sang His birth,

"Christ the Lord is risen, Peace, good will on earth."

In the dreadful desert where the Lord was tried,

There the faithful Angels gathered at His side.

And when in the garden, grief, and pain, and care

Bowed Him down with anguish,they were with Him there.

Yet the Christ they honour is the same Christ still,

Who, in light and darkness did His Father's will.

And the tomb, deserted, shineth like the sky,

Since He passed out from it, into victory.

God has still His Angels helping, at His word,

All His faithful children, like their faithful Lord.

Soothing them in sorrow,arming them in strife,

Opening wide the tomb-doors,leading into life.

Father, send Thine angels unto us, we pray;

Leave us not to wander all along our way.

Let them guard and guide us, whereso'er we be,

Till our resurrection brings us home to Thee.

May the Triumph of the Lord Strengthen your Soul and Grace you with Happiness and Success on Easter and Always !!!
