Easter
Great strength, power and much clout
That's how things do get done.
For centuries people believed this was true
Until God sent Jesus - His only Son.
He came to show us another way
To those who would follow Him.
A gentle way of peace and love
Not of power and murder and sin.
That's why we celebrate Easter
Bunnies and colored eggs too,
To acknowledge the Easter Story of how
Jesus died for me and for you.
Love, joy and peace he did bring
To show man a brand new way.
To stand for what is good, true and right
As you fellowship with Him each day.
So my Easter wish for you this year
Is that you may look at this day,
And how the life and death of Jesus
Has forever changed our way.
