Third Day Glow



Two thousand Abib nights of Passover hope reviving
seems like it was only yesterday
The eclipse empire years,
once darkly spread
across the celestial canopy,
have faded into post-mortem obscurity

Beyond the cursed time,
when the fallen stars
guided us to the grave unfaithfully

Permanent death of the fear of death
went Calvary terminal,
on the blessed day after tomorrow — 
The day the Son truly quicken arose
was so Resurrection beautiful

That radiant, first moment of forever
had such a third day glow

Eternal dawn of the Son 
now shines seraphim brightly in our hearts
Can’t wait 
for the first day of forever 
to Second Coming start

Gladly witness the Son
melt away all the frozen tomb 
tears of sorrow

Presently, 
waiting to see
the day after tomorrow

To radiantly bask forever
in the third day glow
will be so Resurrection beautiful
