No. 31 Christ the Lord is risen today

EASTERTIDE

Christ the Lord is risen today
Victimae Paschali Laudes

Translated by Miss Leeson
Nicola A. Montani

Allegro Modto

1.
Christ the Lord is ris'n today;
Christians, haste your vows to pay;
Offer ye your praises meet
At the Paschal Victim's feet;
For the sheep the Lamb hath bled,
Sinless in the sinner's stead,
Christ the Lord is ris'n on high;
Now He lives, no more to die.

2.
Christ the Victim undefiled,
Man to God hath reconciled,
When in strange and awful strife
Met together death and life;
Christians, on this happy day
Haste with joy your vows to pay;
Christ the Lord is ris'n on high;
Now He lives, no more to die.

3.
Say, O wond'ring Mary, say
What thou sawest on the way,
|I beheld, where Christ had lain,
Empty tomb and angels twain,
I beheld the glory bright
Of the rising Lord of light;
Christ my hope is ris'n again;
Now He lives, and lives to reign.|

4.
Christ, Who once for sinners bled,
Now the first-born from the dead,
Thron'd in endless might and pow'r,
Lives and reigns forever more.
Hail, eternal hope on high!
Hail, Thou King of victory!
Hail, Thou Prince of life ador'd!
Help and save us, gracious Lord!
