by Maria Grace Nobile

Dear Lord,
You knew our worth before our birth.
As our Shepherd, you sought to unite your flock.
You sacrificed your life just for that cause.
Each Easter, we remember how much your sacrifice
redeemed our souls.
We are in God's good grace for all that you have done.
Your meaning in our life cannot be mistaken.
You are both redeemer and savior for us all.
