FIREWORKS ...HE IS RISEN

THE FIREWORKS IN THE SKY
AT EASTER TIME
IS A SIGN OF JUBILATION
A CALL FOR CELEBRATION

THE FIREWORKS IN THE SKY
AT EASTER TIME
IS A MANIFESTATION
OF RENEWED JOY

THE JOY OF CREATION...

WHEN GOD CREATED
YOU AND ME
ALL OF US...

HE NEEDED NO FIREWORKS

SUFFICIENT WERE
THE STARS IN THE HEAVENS
AND THE MOON UP ABOVE

AND THE SUN THAT SET
FOR THE MOON TO RISE

SUFFICIENT WAS
THE FIRE IN HIS HEART
THE LOVE IN HIS HEART

THE LOVE FOR YOU AND ME
FOR ALL OF US.

DISQUIETED DISCERNMENT

DISQUIETED
DISCERNMENT

NOT QUIET
IS IT NOISY?

NOT QUIET
IS IT SILENT?

SILENT
A PLAY OF WORDS
REARRANGED

S I L E N T

L I S T E N

ONLY IN THE STILLNESS
ONLY IN THE DEPTH OF ONE'S BEING
ONLY IN SILENCE
CAN WE LISTEN
CAN WE TRULY HEAR

THE VOICE OF HIM

WHO MAKES THE SUN RISE
WHO MAKES THE SUN SET

WHO MADE THE SUN...

FOR US TO LISTEN
FOR US TO PRAY
FOR US TO SPEAK
FROM OUR HEART
AND THEN...
FOR US
TO FOLLOW HIM

TO THE PLACE BEYOND
THE SUNRISE OR
THE PLACE BEYOND
THE SUNSET

IN GOD THERE IS NO TIME

THEY SAY WE LIVE
BY SECONDS
FOR EACH SECOND


OTHERS TRANSLATE THOSE SECONDS
INTO MINUTES

AND MANY OTHERS
TO HOURS
AND DAYS
AND WEEKS
AND MONTHS
AND YEARS

AND YES, SOME
MEASURE TIME
YESTERDAY
TODAY
AND TOMORROW

AND YOU AND I ?
WE WAIT FOR SUNRISE
WE WAIT FOR SUNSET.

BUT WHY?

IN GOD
WITH GOD

THERE IS NO TIME

THERE IS ETERNITY
