Here’s
an Easter litany from Janet Morley. It was posted on the Christian Aid website.
Roll Back the Stone: A Litany
for Easter
When we
are all despairing,
when the world is full of grief,
when we see no way ahead
and hope has gone away:
Roll back the stone.
when the world is full of grief,
when we see no way ahead
and hope has gone away:
Roll back the stone.
Although
we fear change,
although we are not ready,
although we’d rather weep
and run away:
Roll back the stone.
although we are not ready,
although we’d rather weep
and run away:
Roll back the stone.
Because
we’re coming with the women,
because we hope where hope is vain,
because you call us from the grave
and show the way:
Roll back the stone.
because we hope where hope is vain,
because you call us from the grave
and show the way:
Roll back the stone.
