At our church’s Easter service this morning, we sang one of my very favorite songs/hymns of all time: The Hymn of Promise. Its truth is exactly what I needed to hear, sing, and believe during these trouble times in which we find ourselves.
If you have a moment, I invite you to experience its uplift and encouragement. (The lyrics are below.)
In the bulb, there is a flower
In the seed, an apple tree
In cocoons, a hidden promise
Butterflies will soon be free
In the cold and snow of winter
There’s a spring that waits to be
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see
There’s a song in every silence
Seeking word and melody
There’s a dawn in every darkness
Bringing hope to you and me
From the past will come the future
What it holds, a mystery
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see
In our end is our beginning
In our time, infinity
In our doubt, there is believing
In our life, eternity
In our death, a resurrection
At the last, a victory
Unrevealed until its season
Something God alone can see
I Wish You a Peaceful Easter Evening 2025.
