Unquenchable Light

When darkness fell on Calvary’s hill
     His light could not be quenched;
Forever He could not be killed
     As with His Blood we’re drenched.

His life’s Blood spilled on all of us
     Brings us His risen life,
As we by Holy Spirit trust
     Our Father’s new-born light.

For on the third day He was raised
     To always with us live,
As Trinity through Him we praise–
     Forgiveness Father gives.

Each day we can encounter Him
     In Body and His Blood;
He casts in darkness all our sin;
     We’re washed in cleansing flood.

His light in world forever shines
     And common peace we feel–
In wisdom see His perfect rhyme
     That’s in us now revealed.

Our alpha and omega are
     In His two hands, we know;
From Him we will be never far
     For He holds each one close.
