Dawn of Endless Grace

Dawn unfurls her rosy veil across the hill,

And with her gentle breath, despair is still.

Where shadows clung to broken hearts below,

A risen Savior bids the darkness go.

Tears once soaked the soil of Calvary’s slope,

Now glisten as dew tokens of boundless hope.

The stone once sealed in silent, mocking scorn

Lies cast aside, as grief is now reborn.

Behold the gift: repentance whispered sweet,

Forgiveness flowing warm at wounded feet.

Grace, a crimson river, floods each weary soul,

Healing every fracture, making shattered whole.

Infinite atonement light without an end,

A covenant of love that death cannot suspend.

He walks through morning’s glow with gentle hand,

Guiding us onward to that promised land.

Beneath His banner of mercy, fears unwind,

Protection carved in scars we cannot find.

From hopeless night to resurrection’s song,

We rise with Him redeemed, secure, and strong.

Eternal progression blooms in every heart,

A journey graced by love that will not part.

In Christ’s triumph, sorrow meets its release,

And in His victory, all creation sings of peace.

Triumphant Entry

In the gentle glow of a rising day,  

Amidst whispers of ancient prophecy’s sway,  

Came He, the King, in humble grace,  

Entering Jerusalem’s sacred space.  

Palm branches waved in joyful cheer,  

As hearts awakened and faith drew near;  

“Hosanna!” cried the gathered throng,  

For in His presence, hope grew strong.  

On a modest colt, He rode with might,  

A symbol of peace in the morning light,  

Fulfilling words once softly told,  

Of a Savior coming, brave and bold.  

The streets were lined in vibrant display,  

Where tears of joy and praise held sway;  

The people’s voices rose as one,  

A triumph song for the Holy Son.  

In every step, divine love was cast,  

A promise of salvation meant to last;  

The weight of sin began to lift,  

As time and sorrow found their shift.  

Jerusalem’s walls echoed the refrain,  

Of miracle and mercy that would sustain;  

The King of kings had come to restore,  

A broken world, forevermore.  

So let this day be etched in our hearts,  

A reminder that every journey starts  

With humble hope and faith’s embrace 

The triumphant entry, a gift of grace.

In the Shadows of Gethsemane

In the dark, desolate garden of night,  

Where trembling souls gathered in sorrow's plight,  

There He knelt with a burden vast and grim,  

Consumed by anguish from the approaching doom within.

Tears flowed as silent testament to pain,  

Each droplet an echo of humanity's strain.  

In the lonely gloom of olive trees' despair,  

He wrestled with the weight of a cross too heavy to bear.

Bitter sweat like blood marked His brow,  

A poignant sacrifice, He could not disavow.  

In that cursed hour, despair and dread intertwined,  

As He pleaded for strength to free His tormented mind.

The bitter taste of agony filled the air,  

While voices of mockery rose in a cruel affair.  

Insults and jeers, like arrows, pierced the night  

“King of the Jews,” they spat without respite.

He suffered the sting of derision and scorn,  

A solitude in His anguish, deeply mourned.  

Every lash, every jeer, every scornful call  

Wove a torment as His spirit began to fall.

He bore the weight of all sin and disdain,  

In lonely Gethsemane, He felt the world’s pain.  

The agony of betrayal, the burden of shame,  

In every heart-wrenching moment, none would be the same.

As the crown of thorns pressed His gentle head,  

The echoes of insults and bitter words were spread.  

Pain unrelenting, the agony of mortal plight  

A silent cry in the dark that marked His final fight.

In the shadows of death, He embraced His fate,  

Suffering in silence, no reprieve, no escape.  

A solemn sacrifice on the cross displayed,  

A testimony of love in torment unswayed.

Thus stands the memory of that mournful day,  

Of sorrow, suffering, and wounds that will not fade away.  

In silent reverence we recall His excruciating pain

A love unyielding, etched in eternal refrain.

The Miracle of the Empty Tomb

Before the dawn had kissed the sky,  

A stone was rolled, a tomb laid bare,  

Where death had sworn to claim its throne,  

Found nothing but the morning’s prayer.  

Behold the cross, its splintered wood,  

Still echoes with the weight of love,  

Where heaven’s breath met mortal blood,  

And mercy stormed the gates above.  

His brow, once crowned with thorns and night,  

Now wears the diadem of sun,  

Each wound a star, each scar a light,  

To guide the lost and ransomed ones.  

Who bore the curse, the scourge, the nails,  

The spear that pierced His sacred side?  

He carried freight of countless tales  

Of souls adrift in sin’s dark tide.  

The earth once trembled, veils were torn,  

Now cradles silence, deep and wide,  

A covenant from death is born  

A Lamb once slain, now glorified.  

O empty tomb, your hollowed throat  

Declares the debt He paid in full:  

Where grave and glory intersected,  

Hope’s anthem rises, beautiful.  

For every cry that goes unheard,  

For every heart that breaks and bends,  

He drank the cup of wrath incurred,  

That mercy might transcend our ends.  

Then come, you seekers of the dawn,  

With trembling hands and eyes unveiled,  

Behold the Man of Sorrows, gone  

To conquer where all others failed.  

The stone that sealed the Beloved’s fate  

Now marks the door death could not keep,  

For Love has rolled it back in weight,  

And we, who wept, now rise from sleep.  

So lift your voice with heaven’s throng,  

Let earth resound with holy flame,  

The empty tomb’s eternal song 

Christ has died, and Christ became.
