As Easter nears let us remember........
They took a man
who knew no sin
30 pieces of silver
a follower turned him in
Then hung his-self
ashamed for his sin
They nailed the Lord
to a cross where he hung
as his life's blood
flowed from his veins
They knew that he was gone
but sent guards
to make sure his body remained
Placed in a tomb
a stone blocked the way
Yes, they had to be sure
that here his body stayed
I sat close listening
to the story
it was quite as the dark cold night
And when I heard
that he had died
A silent tear dripped
down from my eyes
Then I heard the most
beautiful part of all
The third morning...
HE AROSE!!!!
No grave could hold him down
No cross of mortal man
God the Father
had the master plans
His mission....
To save the souls of man!
Gramps would pick me up
and tuck me in
and say a prayer with me
Always remembering
the Christ child
and what his Sacrifice gave
for with his life
man was saved!!!
