Resurrection

We pause and look for the reason why
Our thoughts perplexed we silently cry
Frightful, it seems, to think of death
Until we learn of His love’s breath

Gone are the days of youth and innocence
We then stood with knowledge and penance
God has reached far with a vision so brave
He gave His son’s life in order to save

Precious and lovely in His sight are we
The ransom so high - the gift now free
The price was paid for weakness and sin
His son now raised - freedom within

He brought us triumphant victory
As life unfolds - sweet simplicity
The certainty of purpose is now very clear
A life that is eternal - no reason to fear
