Victimae paschali laudes

Forth to the paschal Victim, Christians bring
Your sacrifice of praise:
The Lamb redeems the sheep;
And Christ, the Sinless One,
Hath to the Father sinners reconcil’d.

Together, Death and Life
In a strange conflict strove;
The Prince of Life, who died,
Now lives and reigns.

What thou sawest, Mary, say.
As thou wentest on the way.

I saw the tomb wherein the Living One had lain;
I saw his glory as He rose again;
Napkin and linen clothes, and Angels twain:

Yea, Christ is risen, my hope, and He
Will go before you into Galilee.

We know that Christ indeed has risen from the grave:
Hail, thou King of Victory!
Have mercy, Lord, and save.
