'EASTER'
Shop windows decked out with chocolates
Every sidewalk and street just the same
There was not a sign of our holy day
Not even a whisper of his name
Where will I hear of my father
Will I find him in the Mall
Is he somewhere on the Internet
Will he hear me if I call
Where is the real message of Easter
Why so much ignorance from us
How did a rabbit become so important
Is our own father not worth such fuss?
Why not tell your children the story
Of the man we know as our Lord
Reunite yourself while you're at it
Let him know he has not been ignored
Let us be grateful for all that he gave us
Remind all that have lost their way
There once was a man who lived for us all
Then was crucified for having his say
He gave all who would listen words of hope
His heart had so much love to share
He spoke of a place where our father was waiting
And asked that we never despair
On the day of his capture his tears were for us
He carried the world as he carried his cross
For those who knelt praying he prayed their forgiveness
For all our sins he took such a loss
His time here on earth may have been short
But he always knew this to be the plan
He offered his life so that we might live
How could we ever forget this man???
