Resurrection

ELIZABETH EARL JONES

Why look we to another world
For heaven's glory to appear,
When now on every side unfurled,
Are tokens telling God is here?

The maple's budding feathery red;
Through blackened twigs the warm sap flows;
Spring's birth proclaims, There are no dead,
And through the world a new hope glows.

Thus quickens us the Life divine,
And lifts our thoughts above the sod,
To see in all Love's power sublime,
And every bush aflame with God.
