Grieve No More

Once there was a grieving mother

A widow, already without her man

Now surviving also her son

Imagine, if you can

She walked along side his casket

Probably supplied by charity

Hand on the coffin, weeping, weeping

I can only try to imagine

First her husband, now her son

Weeping, weeping

Do you think she dared hope?

Did she know Life himself was near?

Could she know that the very Author of Life

Would pass her say that day?

But he did, Hallelujah, he did

And with words, it happened

The very lips, the very breath

That had birthed the universe

Resurrected that boy that day

Could she have imagined it?

Can you?

Are you willing?

But it happened

And the boy came alive

And let me tell you a mystery

Life himself is passing by you today

To breathe over the casket in your life

Can you imagine?

Are you willing to try?

All things are possible to him who believes

Give ear to words of Life today

Echoing down from the dawn of creation

Rise, live, dance and play...rejoice

Tune your heart to the voice of Life

More than a force

He is a person

No, you don't deserve it

Of course you did not expect if

Who cares if you 'feel ready'

Life himself is passing your way

Will you not cry out for him?

Reach for the hem of his garment?

Come be breathed upon

Come back to Life

Come be born again
