Easter Egg Song

Easter Egg Song

Stepping from the Shell –

Limericks Born for Easter Morn

The greatest story ever told

Brought brand-new covenant from old.

Mercy purchased on a tree,

Broken Savior – can it be?

Leaping forth is He. Behold.

A multi-colored egg, hard-boiled,

May symbolize a life unspoiled.

Heaven triumphs over hell,

Resurrects a broken shell –

Death has been forever foiled.

From an egg may spring a start,

As brand-new creature steps, so smart.

So may we begin again,

Fresh and clean and pure. Amen.

May this truth embrace the heart.
