“Our hearts be pure from evil, that we may see aright, the Lord in rays eternal, of resurrection light.” My brothers and sisters in Christ, let this be our aspiration this Easter Season and beyond.

“The day of resurrection!  Earth, tell it out abroad! The Passover of gladness, the Passover of God. From death to life eternal, from earth unto the sky, our Christ hath brought us over, with hymns of victory. Now let the heavens be joyful! Let earth the song begin! Let the round world keep triumph, and all that is therein! Let all things seen and unseen their notes in gladness blend, for Christ the Lord hath risen, our joy that hath no end.” Thank you, Lord!
