Unflagging

The day our Lord was resurrected
disciples once undone by grief
were irrevocably connected
by the bonds of true belief.

The heavens must have blazed with light
the day our Lord was resurrected
while those bewildered at the sight
intensely genuflected,

His restoration unexpected--
had they not laid Him in His tomb?
The day our Lord was resurrected
redemption from a holy womb

was borne unto a wicked world
for anyone that's willingly selected
to stand behind the standard He unfurled,
that day our Lord was resurrected.
