They mocked and scorned the Son of God With cruel laughs and jeers, The crown of thorns upon His head Brought forth deriding sneers. Away with Him they then did cry, Of Him we’ll have no part, Contempt, disdain and haughty pride O’er flowed within each heart. Not only they, but also I […]
See how the stone is rolled away, He in the grave no more doth lay, All hail Him now the King of Kings, Earth is attuned, all nature sings. Glad skies and golden rays adorn To greet this happy Easter morn, Death conquered all, He died, now lives, Salvation to His own He gives. […]
When troubles and dangers beset on our way, When dark clouds gather from day unto day, Open your Bible, its’ rich truths then read, A tower of strength to guide and to lead. All its precious pages satisfies our soul, Telling that all things are under His control, It eases all the pain for […]
’Twas early on a Sabbath morn, The women Christ’s grave would adorn When much to their surprise A vision they could not surmise, An empty tomb! “Fear not,” the angel to them said, “Seek not the living among the dead.” With great fear in each heart, They from that place did ere depart, The […]
