Is Easter just a holiday,

with dyed eggs and yummy candy?

Is it a time when children play

and all dress so fine and dandy?

Is Easter when adults find

some much-needed relaxation?

Is it a break from their work

to enjoy a short vacation?

Or does Easter remind us

how Christ died our debt to pay?

And does Easter remind us

of how Christ rose on the third day?

Easter, Easter!

What a beautiful occasion!

Easter, Easter!

What a glorious celebration!

Easter, Easter!

Christ’s resurrection is in view!

Easter, Easter!

He arose for me and you!

Luke 24:1-12; John 20:1-10
