One Easter Morning (Written By: Roger William Sterling, III) One Sunday morning as the sun arose, There came from the tomb a very bright glow And Jesus arose from the grave, Which once had held him as a slave. Two women walking by the tomb, That cold, dark, unforgiving womb, Saw that the stone was rolled away And wondered, "Why did they take our Jesus away?" Then Jesus came and said, "Why do you weep? For I am no longer in deadly sleep." They began to hold him very close As we often do with the ones we love most. But He said, "Don't hold me for I've not ascended, But tell everyone my troubles have ended. For I am no longer a shackled slave Of that cold, dark, musty grave." Let's all celebrate this day of days And give our God the utmost praise. For we can declare on this joyful day That Christ OUR Lord is risen today!
