Poetry: Sunrise service

by Annie M Manzi

Created on: March 08, 2010   Last Updated: May 01, 2010

The morning is not yet here

As we gather by the mountain

Sleepy babies whimper

Children play among the rocks

Adults murmur soft words to each other

A figure raises his hands

A hush befalls the crowd

"Glory to Him on High!"

"Glory to the King of Kings!"

"Praise to Jesus who took on our sins and died for us!"

"Praise be to our Lord who died and rose again!"

"Who gave us everlasting light, life and hope!"

"Who we are here to praise today, this Holy morning!"

"Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Thank you Lord!"

People sing songs of praise and worship

With their hands held high in worship

Love permeates the air

The Holy Spirit lifts hearts up with joy

The sun rises and warms the flock

And the Son rose to save them long ago

Each and everyone who believes is saved

By the holy blood of our Savior, Jesus Christ!
