Broken politics Symptoms of a broken culture With too many broken morals Or lack thereof
A world so sick It killed its own Creator Hung Him on a dead, dry stick Dying in Our place
As is found in a Holy, Holy, Holy Bible Words do tell of So it is Words do explain Therefore, it is Guidelines by which to live Hope, love, joy, peace It seeks to give So at last To end, to mend The brokenness
Demon's danced in glee At the feet of the man Dying upon a bitter tree Storm clouds gathered Sun darkened Ground was shaken Rocks split, tombs opened Dead bodies walked, renewed Hoping to gain even a brief view As Christ breathed His last Or did He?
Because . . . A few days later Dear friends walked upon A garden's sod To perfume a dead man's body Instead . . . Were given a glimpse Of their risen God By His gentle voice Once more were they met As from a now empty tomb He had just stepped
They rejoiced, rejoiced Again were allowed To hear their dear Savior's voice Such joy in heaven Could not be contained For at even the slightest mention Of His Holy Royal Name All of His powerful angels shout HALLELUYAH! HALLELUYAH!
