Poetry
The Paschal Candle
Burns brightly in the darkness
Light conquers darkness.
Death is banished forever.
The Christ Candle
A symbol of the Risen Lord
The victory of life over death
Heaven over the grave.
The Easter Candle
The Alpha and the Omega
The beginning and the end
The omnipotence of God.
The White Candle
Christ, yesterday and today
The Light of the world
Forever present amidst His own.
The Tall Candle
A pillar of strength day and night
All time belongs to Him
All ages under His power and rule.
The Cross bearing Candle
Five grains of incense ingrained on it
The five wounds of our Lord
The sacrifice once and for all.
The Vigil Candle
A celebration of the first Easter
To the one who merits
All praise and glory in every age to come.
