Christ lives again (Vol 3 No 66)


The risen Christ is here if we have eyes to see;

When unannounced he comes, sometimes surprisingly;

He’s open to

An earthly view

When human love is born anew.

 

When sharing with the crushed, those trapped in misery

We bring a gentleness, a comfort ministry;

And when we do

Christ lives anew

In human love – in me and you.

 

When laws support the poor and sponsor equity,

When pow’r is exercised to foster harmony;

Yes!  That is when

Christ lives again,

And joyfully we sing, Amen.

 

When nature does its worst, we search quite frantic’ly

For injured and the lost; we spend love’s currency;

And as we strive

There is that drive

In human love - Christ is alive!

 

When love is lived today and lived repeatedly,

When love is born of love and not cold piety,

Christ lives once more

He is the core

Of human love.  We stand in awe.
