Savior

Savior

“Who will roll the stone away?”

An empty tomb greeted me that morning;
Stone rolled away before the sunrise;
Thunder rolls!  Shakes my soul!
My heart is trembling with awe.

“Why do you seek the living among the dead?”
Witness to the journey of love that never ends.

An angel stood at the tomb that morning.
Why do you seek for living with the dead?
God’s surprise fills my eyes
I see my Savior alive.

“We seek Jesus, who was crucified.”
Witness to the journey of love that never ends.

I know my Savior lives!
Yes, I know my Savior is alive.
A witness to the journey of love 
That never ends.

“He is not here for He has risen”
Witness to the journey of love that never ends.

I know my Savior lives, yes I do;
I know my Savior did arise.
I heard him speak my name
Then looked into his eyes.

My Jesus.
My Savior!

Alleluia!
Amen!

Thank you Easter friend! It was such a joy to share the poems of the last three days taking us from Calvary through the tomb to Resurrection. May your day be overflowing with the new life of Easter blessings - and a little chocolate. Race you for the last chocolate egg!

Hi John, thank you! During the Easter Season I portray Mary of Magdala telling Resurrection stories. Portraying biblical women has given me a new perspective on both their, and my, relationship with God. These people, no longer flat words on a page, but living, breathing personal friends. Their stories have been such gifts to me - a joy to introduce them to so many. Easter blessings, my friend. Alleluia! AMEN!

Alleluia! I must admit, my Easter friend, I've been looking forward to reading this all week! What glory in the day the Savior triumphed over death itself. "Witness to the journey of love that never ends." Alleluia and amen!

Me too! Just a note - you can hear Savior on CDBaby, Amazon, iHeart or Jango. It is part of the Jericho Road album. We are so blessed to be witnesses through our poetry and music! What a joy - an Easter joy!
