To the Paschal victim let Christians offer up their songs of praise.
The Lamb has redeemed the sheep: Christ who is without sin has reconciled sinners to the Father.
Death and life have fought a huge battle; The Prince of Life was dead, but lives and reigns.
Tell us, Mary, what did you see on your way?
The tomb of Christ, who is alive, and I saw the glory of his rising;
Angels standing as witnesses, the shroud and linen cloth.
Christ my hope has risen: He has gone to Galilee before you.
More trust should be placed in truthful Mary than in a deceitful crowd of Jews.
Truly, we know Christ has risen from the dead: O King and victor, have mercy on us.
Amen. Alleluia
