Church of the Resurrection
A new church - with gladness we rejoice
To see a threefold symbol of our faith,
a FAITH renewed -
A precious heritage sustained by HOPE,
HOPE, dispelling fears in our restless world,
Turning our thoughts to greater things
'Which eye hath seen nor ears heard'
As promised by our Creed.
And then CHARITY -
The charity of those who freely gave,
Generous in their giving,
Sharing now the Blessings of a noble work.
And so it stands, simple, serene and graceful,
A credit to the skill of gifted hands.
And as the bell tolls we look beyond the Cross
To proclaim the glory of the RISEN LORD.
