EasterThat first glad Easter day; Within the true believer's heart, It's just as real today. The Roman guards who kept the watch, The early morning gloom, The angel's words, "He is not here" Resounding from the tomb. And oh, the joy in Mary's heart While in the garden fair To see her blessed Lord appear Upon the pathway there. Although it happened long ago, It still is true today; Oh, let our hearts rejoice and sing, The stone is rolled away. Kay Hoffman Softly and Tenderly |
