Glorious now behold Him arise!
King and God and Sacrifice.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Earth to heaven replies.

Happy Easter!

Love,
Nik, Laura, Ellie, and Marko

The lyrics above are the final verse to the [traditionally thought of as a] Christmas hymn, “We Three Kings.” Since that past year’s Advent Concert, our family has learned all the verses and the entire gospel story is there, including:

Myrrh is mine: Its bitter perfume
Breaths a life of gathering gloom.
Sorrow, sighing, bleeding, dying,
Sealed in a stone-cold tomb.

Thank you Jesus that is not the last verse! He is risen!
