Victimae Paschali Laudes (Easter Sequence)

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 reconciled. 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 gone before To Galilee. We know that Christ indeed has risen from the grave: Hail, Thou Victor King, have mercy, Lord, and save! Amen. Alleluia.
