Risen



No more does darkness creep,
reigns not a gloom in heart
but light and heaven's glory
illuminate a path.

In Spring the buds await
the sun's first golden glow,
may we at Easter  celebrate
resurrection, new-born hope.

A full abundant life,
man's deep desires fulfilled,
riches God freely gives,
by grace-- beheld, received.
