A light on the dark horizon, Shining with luminous ray, Banishes fear and sorrow, For Christ is risen today! O sing it to those who sorrow, The message is clear and sweet, "He is the Resurrection," Go tell it to those who weep. Go tell them that Jesus is living, He's living just as He said, And some day He's coming in glory, Coming to quicken the dead. Then all the pain and the suffering That now His beloved ones feel, Will pass, for "There is no sorrow On earth that heaven can't heal!" So tell them that Jesus is living, That He will illumine the way Over the troublesome waters, For Christ is risen today! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MITHRIDATES by RALPH WALDO EMERSON ECHOES: 35.
