(short introduction)
At the Lamb's high feast we sing,
Joyfully our praises bring.,
Christ has washed us in the tide
Flowing from his piercéd side;
Praise we Christ, Whose love divine
Gives His sacred blood for wine,
Gives His body for the feast,
Christ the Victim, Christ the Priest.Mighty Victim from the sky,
Hell's fierce powers beneath you lie;
You have conquered in the fight,
You have brought us life and light;
Now no more can death appall,
Now no more the grave enthrall;
You have opened Paradise,
And in you your saints shall rise.Pascal triumph, Pascal joy,
Sin alone can this destroy;
From sin's power you set us free
Dazzeled by your Light see.
Hymns of glory and of praise,
Risen Christ, to you we raise;
Holy Maker, praise to you,
With the Spirit, ever due.Words: Latin, 1632, adpt.
