Easter Remembered
Today is Easter. A time to remember.
A sacrifice made, so loving and tender.
Though today’s Easter may not be right.
It’s not the day, as much as the site.
What is brought to mind about that day.
The day Jesus has risen & why we pray.
Without his death, there is no forgiveness.
To conquer death was His business.
Easter is about His resurrection.
Now, were assured to make the connection.
We to, can have everlasting life.
Escape all the pain and strife.
Be one with Him who overcame.
Be brought back into the fold in His name.
What greater thoughts can there be.
Dwell on this. Keep Easter free.
Free from the bunnies and eggs.
Free from all the pagan mistakes.
Give thanks to the Lord for all He has done.
For, without Him, we would be done.
