Easter

On Christmas day Was born a babe, Who brought forth joy And peace on earth. On Easter day, Lord Christ, who died, Came back to life All on his own. Prophets had died; Saints too had died; Great men had died; But none returned. Just Jesus Christ Rose on third day; He won over death, And Satan lost. The death of Christ, Resurrection, Victory o’er death Brought redemption- For all mankind, For endless time; Heaven was now Open to all. Sinners who say ‘I’m sorry, God, And repent well, Can avoid hell’ Christ paid the price Of mankind’s sins By death on cross, And his suffering. When we do sins, They wound the Lord, And hurt him more And make him sore, Let’s rise with Christ; Renounce Satan, His pomps and works; Live for Christ’s sake. Heaven is ours. Christ is the way; He is the Truth; He is the Light. Let’s follow Christ To Calvary; And heaven-wards: ETERNITY! Copyright by Dr John Celes 4-5-2007
