Happy Easter 2016

Happy Easter to all my friends
Easter is a promise God renews to us each spring
A promise that we’ll always have Him there,
And like the flowers that bloom so bright
And birds that sweetly sing,
We always will receive His tender care,
A promise that He’ll hold us up
Each time we start to fall
And see us through each hour of care and strife.
Easter is God’s promise
That His love rules over all,
And through Him
We will have eternal life.
On Easter we celebrate love,
love coming down from heaven,
love blanketing the earth
in a transforming embrace;
unique and infinite love,
giving more than we can imagine
for us, to cleanse our sin,
a perfect sacrifice, Lamb of God,
the walking, talking Word.
He is teacher, role model, friend,
this God in human form,
dying, then rising from the dead,
proving all who believe
will also rise
to have eternal life, with Him,
Lord of all.
Oh, Happy, Happy Easter!
