In the glorious Easter story
A troubled world we find
Blessed reassurance
And enduring peace of mind.

For though we grow discouraged
In this world we're living in,
There is comfort just in knowing
God has triumphed over sin.

For our Saviour's Resurrection
Was Gods way of telling men
That in Christ we are eternal
And in Him we live again.

And to know life is unending
And God's love is endless, too,
Makes our daily tasks and burdens
So much easier to do.

For the blessed Easter story
Of Christ the living Lord,
Makes our earthly sorrow nothing
When compared with this reward.
