Oh Glorious Day!

Easter Sunday was gloomy, cold, rainy...
But today, today is sunny, brisk, the air
washed clean. Jake and I walked past
stirring chickens, lambs lying in a green
pasture, a satisfied horse, a canal flowing
full with water. The ground was soft
beneath my feet--a bit muddy actually.

As I walked I hummed a little tune.

'Up from the grace He arose...
He arose one morning from the dark domain,
Now He lives forever with His saints to
      reign.
He arose!
He arose!
My Jesus Christ arose!'

Because He lives I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives all fear is gone.
Because he lives I will live forever!

Oh, glorious resurrection!
