Easter Sunrise

1,978 years ago,
New life came.
In the dark of the morning
He came.
Breathing new life back into all creation.

My Jesus is alive,
and He's up in heaven waiting,
For this poor man to finish his race.

He is risen!
He's alive!
Heaven's gates are open wide!
(to quote a song...)
The miracle that happened all those years ago
Still works in me,
making me strong, true, and lovely.

So, the sun is rising,
on this easter morning.

The son is rising in the earth.
Rising to take His rightful place
as king over the nations.

Come quickly, King of Kings!
Come quickly, Lord of Lords!
Come quickly, King Jesus!!!!
