THE MIRACLE OF MIRACLES
SSafSi Hsia g. THE MAN IN r4r TOWER

 Easter morn : and the birth Of the greatest miracle has come upon us For from the bowels of the earth dead Man by His Own strength has sno"n us Where heavenly power lies For God few days ere dies And forseeing doubters, utters forth A prediction whose filling is worth The sum total of His credentials as MesslaS He is risen as had spoken And from out the rocks into the open A Dead Man rises in the full panoply Of His just claims to Divinity. He is Christ He is God! The Same That suffered and That trod Cavary's heights in steps of blood By humanity misunderstood. And ifto-day the rocks of doubt Are not yet broken, and led out The once dead doubter-then Among believing reasoning men You have no right for life or quarter For this Kidnapped God and prey of murder Who has wrought the unheard of greatest Wonder By rending rocks and tombs asunder To appear to all as He had said: I'll conie to life after three days dead By My Own, My Godlike hands Walking on the morning sands Of the Shores of Galiee.
 He proved His worth
 By giving birth
 To this miracle of miracles.
 And if forthwith
 Christ is a myth
 Then we are insane unthinkabes!

Johnny boy you lie so still,
 Your smile is gone, your face tranquil. Only few short yesterdays
 You were in our midst so happy and gay, A friend to all whom you knew, Playing the game straight and true. You'll live in our memories in years to come And we'll often recall the things you've done, So Johnny, boy, sleep on
 You have reached ife's goal. With heads bowed in prayer we softly bid adieu A Brother Bill.
