The Scent of Easter Lilies
The scent of Easter lilies is everywhere
representing new life, new hope
As we honor the resurrection of our Lord
through a celebration of memorial love,
we feel renewed and ready to meet a new year
full of peaceful living;
From the brazier comes a new and blessed fire
and as we light the pascal candle as a sign of hope
we overcome the darkness of the tomb
and enter a time of great knowledge
For we know He is the alpha and omega,
the beginning and the end,
A grain of bread in a broken world, full of hunger
The scent of Easter lilies reminds us that we
can be saved, and we can bloom again
thanks to the love He has bestowed on us,
since that very first Easter.
