Easter is a time of love,
A time of death and pain undone,
So we may know the power of
The love that lives in everyone.
Each love we feel, unstained and free,
Redeems us–as with you and me. – Nicholas Gordon

Jesus Christ crucified
His blood shed for all
The sacrificial Lamb of God
Arose as Lord of Lords
And we can all rejoice today
In what our Lord has done
No sacrifice can be compared
To that of Gods dear Son. – M.S.Lowndes-
