There is no closer thing
To the essence of spring

As Easter sunrise
Yellow, blue, pink, and light
As hope in the sky
Ending deep, long night

Stabbed by spear
Sealed by stone
Dead and cold
Lain alone

Before the morning
Of the third day
Living again
No longer lay

Return to life
He took the fall
And death was mortal
After all

And He's alive
And He's above
And He has won
And He is love

There is no closer thing
To the essence of spring

As Sunday miracle
As empty tomb
As life returning
As flowers bloom

(April 16)
