Happy Easter​

 

With Miriam we will dance

and celebrate the day

when sullen seas were swept apart

to show the way.

The dancers lend us grace

to turn from seas of fear

towards the unknown wilderness,

for God is there.

 

With Mary we will wait

when even hope seems dead,

with others rush down roads

they say we may not tread;

and waiting, strong and still

through all our grief and pain,

we hear the whisper of  God’s will,

we hear our name.

 

 

Made whole, the human race

may answer to God’s call

in dance and silence, truth and grace,

embracing all.

This journey never ends,

God’s promise calls us on,

until our sisters, brothers,

friends may join the song.

 

Janet Wootton (b. 1952)
