Thoii|[h Christ on Calvary’i cross was crucified -And in a borrowed tombi His body laid. He rose in three days from that very grave And lived among His friends, as He had said. He walked again the shores of ancient Galilee, He met with ^ose who thought that He was dead; He supped with men whose hopes had almost failed. And rallied those who from their tasks had fled. •He went from them back to His heavenly home. The place His Father had prepared for Hha, And there. He reigns immortal over time. And tl\gre, the brightness of 1^ Itfe will never dim. And still, He lives here jest the same, today. In all man’s imblest thoughts and dee^, as then; ^ His presence just as real. His purpose true; His power, even stronger, in redeeming men. ~B. L. Ksight, fiaich 7,1948 (Rev.
