Rejoice It's Easter

Cross

"REJOICE! IT'S EASTER!"

Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled
Let not your soul be sad
Easter is a time of joy
When all hearts should be glad.

Glad to know that Jesus Christ
Made it possible for men
To have their sins forgiven
And, like Him, to live again.

So at this joyous season
May the wondrous Easter Story
Renew our Faith so we may be
Partakers of "His Glory!"

Cross

"MAY THE CROSS "

May the cross that was carried
so many years ago
Be a reminder of that
which so many bear. So

That we don't have to redo
all of the wrongs in life.
So that God and his one son
don't still have all this strife.

But may we all try today
to correct and to change
The direction that we may
in our time rearrange.

May we bring more love into
the world than we now have.
And may all our hearts pour forth
Like a balm, as a salve

In healing much of the pain
That remains on this earth.
And in our hearts and minds be
Ready for a Rebirth.

A rebirth of love and hope
And joy and peace within.
For every one on earth as
Each of us say: "AMEN."
