Hymn of resurrection

Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
Christ has risen from the dead,
and will die no more.
Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory

In spite of the heavy stone on the tomb,
The sorrowful sin of the world,
And the guards keeping vigil over your Body,
You are risen, Lord, our God.

Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
Christ has risen from the dead,
and will die no more.
Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory

To the women who came to the tomb,
An angel spoke of your resurrection;
You made yourself a companion for the disciples
And in Emmaus you had dinner with them.

Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
Christ has risen from the dead,
and will die no more.
Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory

In spite of the fear and closed doors,
You appeared to the gathered disciples,
You gave them the power to forgive
And offered them your peace.

Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
Christ has risen from the dead,
and will die no more.
Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory

Today, through all the world, with faith,
we celebrate your resurrection.
From the depth of our hearts we confess
That you are our Lord and our God.

Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
Christ has risen from the dead,
and will die no more.
Praise to you, o Lord, King of eternal glory
