Victimae paschal laudes
Christians,
to the Paschal victim offer your thankful praises! Victimae paschal laudes
A lamb the sheep redeems; Christ, who only is sinless, reconciles
sinners to the Father.
Death and life have contended in that combat stupendous:
the Prince of life, who died, reigns immortal.
Speak, Mary, declaring what you saw, wayfaring:
"The tomb of Christ, who is living, the glory of Jesus' resurrection;
Bright angels attesting, the shroud and napkin resting. Yes, Christ
my hope is arisen; to Galilee he will go before you."
Christ indeed from death is risen, our new life obtaining; have mercy,
victor King, ever reigning! Amen. Alleluia.
