Curious Christian

Reflections on culture, nature, and spirituality from a Christian perspective

Resurrection

Trembling for joy cries all creation;
What is this mystery, so great and new?
The Lord has risen from among the dead,
And Death itself He crushed with valiant foot.
Behold the cruel tyrant bound and chained,
And man made free by Him who rose!

Melito of Sardes (Asia Minor), second century
