Easter Joy
Easter Joy
The joy of Easter
Is found within
It started way back
When Christ had risen
Now each individual
Is born with the joy
That we are all given
To self employ
The joy is from
The Lord above
The Great I Am
To share His Love
He sent His Son
In human form
To shine His light
For us to conform
It was hard to believe
That Holy resurrection
Since it had been 3 days
After the grim crucifixion
So they say the Easter name
Is from a spring celebration
Of a goddess from England
In which was pre-Christian
Since the sun rises in the east
Instead I would tend to say
It is like the Christ son arose
On the glorious Easter day
Share the joy of Easter
Let it shine so bright
For everyone to see
Like the rising sun light
Jesus was placed in our hearts
Filled with joy when we were born
Maybe the name Jesus means He’s us
Let’s all celebrate His joy on Easter morn
