Easter Martyrs
Easter is upon us
Nearing the time of remembrance each day
Calling us to reflect and think
Of what the Saviour has done
Dying in our place,
To provide us with grace
Forgiveness from our sins
Life eternal and everlasting
Could we ever repay?
This great sacrifice, No!
I read my books
And my Bible too
Drawing closer to You.
I think of all the martyrs
Not just the ones from history
But the modern day saints
Standing for what they believe
Dying to prove their faith
And I am in awe
Of such selfless acts
Being so sure of their destiny
Their certainty never failing
Making us all stronger
More like the strongest of all
Jesus Christ, our Lord
In this holiday season
Don't just think of your own fun
Take a moment, to thank God
For all He has done
And continues to do.
I know I'm thinking of HIm, right now.
