Was it this one?

Salvation Came

See a tiny Babe in His mother's arms
Tenderly she protects Him from all harms
Salvation clothed in fragile skin
Who could know that over Satan He'd win?
A man who walked throughout the land
Proclaiming God's Kingdom in a way we'd understand
Salvation hangs on a cross alone
His life for our sins now to atone
Not only in that time and place
Did Jesus die for the human race
Salvation came for all you see
Not just then, but for you and me

or this one?

The Real Reason

I'm going to tell you something you might consider funny
But Easter isn't all about the hip hoppity bunny
Nor is at about candy and all those other sweets
And the eggs in the basket and other fun treats
Now listen close to what I have to say
And you'll know why we celebrate this day
Easter tells us how much God's love costs
And how He wants to gather in the lost
It was on the cross Christ died for our sin
So those who believed now to Heaven enter in
Yes, God so loved the world that He gave His Son
So victory over death could now be won
On Easter morning Christ rose from the dead
The story's not over, there's much more to be said
Yes, it's okay to enjoy the bunny, the candy and sweets
The eggs in the basket and the other fun treats
Just remember that Christ's resurrection is the real reason
That we celebrate the Easter season

Thanks. I had found my original scribblings but I always tweak stuff as I go along and wasn't sure where.

The poem I wanted was Salvation Came. I checked the archives for my full name and the last poem archived was The Real Reason bookmark so it was among the missing posts.

Thanks again.

Mary
