Christ the Lord is risen today:
Christians, hasten your vows to pay;
Offer ye your praises meet
At the Paschal Victim's feet;
For the sheep the Lamb has bled,
Sinless in the sinner's stead.
Christ the Lord is risen on high;
Now He lives, no more to die.
Roman Missal, Easter Week, Sequence Victimae Pacchali at Mass. (Tr. J. Leeson)
(Att. to Wipo, 11th Century.
