Like the first lily that pushes out of the ground
You raised your arms and rose to heaven
Revived and restored like a turtle dove in flight
You opened your heart and He raised you up,
on this "Blessed Easter Morning"
As the larks deliver their song in flight
we celebrate you, "Lord, Savior, King"
This heavenly reward is our countenance of light
bestowed on us today brighter than sunlight;
You, first tulip of Spring rejoice in our hearts
as we awaken to a new world full of promise
You auroral dawning (alibi) rose of Sharon
bring us tidings of love and renewal
This time of the year, I always looked forward to the first new blooms of spring. The tulips that burst forth from the hard rocky soil under the trees in my yard, planted many years before. The daffodils that I brought and planted under my front window shrub that appeared every year until the shade and roots of the shrub eventually choked them off.
The Redbud tree that bloomed first every year in the West Virginia front yard. Yes, all of these lovely flowers are sure signs that after a long hard winter, hardy perennial plants are returning to lifecycles once more.
In my opinion: the resurrection of Christ Jesus is the most important event in human history. Christ came out of the tomb the First Fruits of an entirely new race of humans. Our old history ends with the cross, and our new history begins with the resurrection of our beloved Savior. Fine sentiment in this Vienna. Kind regards... rlc
