Sunday, He LivesEarly in the morning
Before the sun dawned,
Women crept to the garden
Asking how to open the tomb,
How to see in the gloom
What do we say to the guards?
The earth shook!
Tremors rocked the city walls,
Leaves fell like rain,
And the guards ran and hid;
At the tomb, these...

Saturday, We HidWe watched him die,
He was nailed up high,
Alive for hours,
Before the sky turned black;
Thunder rolled,
Lightning flashed,
It is finished, was the cry
That came final from his lips;
He died, we cried, we ran and hid;
He was taken and laid in a tomb,
Borrowed from a friend,
Laid there,...

Shadow and NailsIn darkest days, when shadows blended with the earth,
And nails hung humanity in its blood-stained hands,
While the priests looked on and smiled politely
They stole the heart of everyone who saw truth
In God’s own Son, yet left the gate wide open for death,
And so, we enter the darkest hours, as life...

Here Comes the Bunny!(Easter Bunny Song)
Here comes the bunny with a wiggle and a hop,
Bringing jellybeans and eggs that plop!
With a basket full of magic and a trail of cheer,
He hides little treasures once a year!
He’s got pink paws and a cotton tail,
Zooming through gardens and bunny trails.
If you see a flash of fluff, don’t blink too slow--
That...

He Rose on the Third Day(Easter Resurrection Song)
He rose on the third day, the stone rolled away,
The darkness was shattered by dawn’s golden ray.
The grave could not hold Him, the veil torn in two,
The promise of heaven made faithful and true.
He walked out in glory, His hands marked with grace,
The wounds that redeemed us, love’s radiant trace.
The angels rejoiced, and...

Cross of GnosisThe debt of soul to Nebro came through the cross of gnosis
Through strength of spirit, though no mortal sacrifice could pay that debt
Christ the vine became that tree of gnosis to pay the debt

Happy EasterAnother Easter Sunday arrives...
I should feel different today, but I don't
I should feel more grateful for the sacrifice, but I don't.
I should be spiritually improving but yet I stagnate.
Miraculous deeds from centuries ago
always lose their luster, that is their fate.
I still have bad thoughts and a black tongue
just like any other day of...

A Love Hung QuietThe hill was bare, the sky undone,
The veil was torn without a sound.
Red streaked the wood, the earth stood still,
And love hung quiet, pierced and crowned.
But dawn returned in linen white,
A folded cloth, an open stone.
No trumpet called, just wind and light,
And grace that walked the garden home.
Now light outlives the longest night,
And hope is...
