EASTER brings a message clear,
Of hope and love, so pure and dear.
With the promise of a brighter day,
In Christ’s embrace, we find our way.
Through trials and struggles, joys and fears,
Christ’s love for us will ever be near.
In Easter’s grace, we find our rest,
A peace that comes from Christ’s own breast.
The tomb was empty, Christ had risen,
A message so strong, a hope so given,
That life can bloom in every heart,
And hope can shine, where once was darkness.
So, let us lift our voices high,
In joyful praise of Christ, the Most High.
Let our hearts be filled with love,
For Christ has risen, and lives above. — Wires

A perfect God demands perfect justice;
He cannot let us get away with sin.
We used God’s gift of our free will to trespass,
So, Heaven’s gates were closed; we could not get in.
Our sin required our blood, a sacrifice,
To atone for all the wrongs that we had done.
“But I love them!” cried our Father, filled with sorrow.
“I will send my only Son to be the one.”
Good Friday marks the slaying of our Jesus,
The unblemished lamb, the perfect sacrifice.
He took our guilt and blame upon Himself,
So we could be with Him in Paradise.
He came back from death;
He vanished from the tomb.
His resurrection means eternal life for us,
the ones he came to earth to save.
This sums up the entire Easter story,
And because of it, we will be with Him in glory. — Wires
