Easter Prayer

Christ is Risen:  The world below lies desolate
Christ is Risen:  The spirits of evil are fallen
Christ is Risen:  The angels of God are rejoicing
Christ is Risen:  The tombs of the dead are empty

Christ is Risen indeed from the dead, the first of the sleepers,
Glory and power are his forever and ever.

The Whole Life of Christ

The whole life of Christ was a continuall Passion; others die Martyrs,
but Christ was born a Martyr . . . His birth and his death were but one
continuall act, and his Christmas-day and his Good Friday, are but the
evening and morning of one and the same day.


                                      John Donne, “Christmas Sermon,” Dec 25, 1626
