Easter Day
Hallelujah!
Sing to the Lord a new song;
sing God’s praise in the congregation of the faithful.
Psalm 149:1
is the joy that comes in the morning
after a night of weeping
and speaks to the deepest grief
Easter joy
is at first unrecognizable
and then speaks our name
and we are saved
Easter joy
unsettles the very foundations of the universe
and renews creation
Easter joy
commands us to go
compels us to proclaim
its breathtaking goodness
with every Alleluia!
