Easter Sunday 2013
Jesus, Seed sown-down / risen-up fruit-full
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Wheat-grain harvested whole / hallowed
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Bread-broken giving Life forever
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Wrathful grape pressed into purpled joy
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Dead and dread become dancing-dawn
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Light piercing / penetrating / ‘luminating / prism-ing
closed-minds and hearts
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Centering silence become
Stillpoint for healed / whole / holy souls
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Soul-thrilling / spine-tingling sound of music
trumpeting Easter triumph
for all God’s people
Arise and sing Alleluia!
Jesus! Love of my life!
Joy of my heart!
Song of my soul!
Source of my own New Life!
I never cease to thank and praise you
and Arise and sing forever
Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia!!!
