One Sunday Morning

"Now upon the first day of the week..." Luke 24:1 

One Sunday morning

Back in the beginning

God’s “Let there be light”

Broke forth from the night.

With a single command,

Triune Majesty’s plan

Of Creation began;

All came from His hand.

 

One Sunday morning

Despair seemed to be winning,

But God’s Son arose,

Defeating all foes.

The most brilliant of skies

Paled before that Sonrise,

True Light that the Darkness

Could not extinguish.

 

One Sunday morning

A week – gift repeating

Thousands of times.

Like nickels and dimes,

We spend and we use them.

May our days ever praise Him:

His Sundays to echo,

Life and Light from Him show.
