Easter in a Time of Sorrow
Easter is a time to gather
A time of fun and joy
A time to hear the latest stories
To praise the little girls and boys
We hold back all our doubt and troubles
And breathe the springtime air
We watch the children run and play
And laugh without a care
Chocolate eggs and painted rainbows
Singing birds and blooming flowers
Life affirming love abounding
We leave behind our darkest hours
Easter now becomes a shadow
Of a joy that is no more
A day to gather at a distance
A day to wonder what’s in store
We will find our way to grace again
We must not become forlorn
In the days of sorrow we affirm
Our happiness will be reborn
