Easter Thorns

Thorns
 
behind the brutal barricade
of thorns and scourges hate and death
beyond the endless night of pain
of wretchedness and love defiled
a promise made a promise kept
and dawn announces glow of life
as Easter morning wakes anew
the earth arising battle worn
but battle won to destinies
that faith and hope and love can lead.
 
He shows it can be done despite
the gory greed of man's intent
from gutter ways man can arise
and bless the earth with Eden state
make new luxuriant barren land
with peace and justice, love and care.
 
Alleluia! He has won!
Because of Him we have won too!
Our mission now to lift the earth
to resurrection life renewed!
