Celebrating the Cross

by Judy Bauman

This season arrives with flowers abloom

As we celebrate an empty tomb

The love He lived gave us direction

Through God's power He is resurrected

Jesus was nailed to a wooden cross

A chasm to God was too wide across

The Christ came to save all who were lost

He's our Deliverer at any cost

Come let us reason together dear ones

Jesus died for the 'prodigal sons'

May the joy of this Day help you cope

For God will fill your heart full of hope

Jesus is RISEN!  2005
