Up from the grave he arose;
with a mighty triumph o’er his foes;
he arose a victor from the dark domain,
and he lives forever, with his saints to reign.
He arose! He arose! Hallelujah! Christ arose!

Happy Easter!

Love, Nik, Laura, Ellie, and Marko

Easter 2014, Easter 2013

P.S. I love this hymn but every time I sing it, if I’m not careful, I end up singing, “he lives forever with the king of Spain”.  Am I the only one who always gets that line wrong? 🙂

P.P.S. This year’s Easter family picture did not go according to plan (in many ways) but Nik did get this shot of the three of us at one point at our church’s Easter service.  There’s no forcing kids to smile (or even look at the camera), is there? Thankfully, this doesn’t change the risen character of our Lord Jesus!
