God has brought forth Israel into joy from sadness, loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke Jacob’s sons and daughters; led them with unmoistened foot through the Red Sea waters. 2 ’Tis the spring of souls today: Christ has burst his prison, and from three days’ sleep in death as a sun has risen. All the winter of our sins, long and dark, is flying from the Light to whom we give laud and praise undying. 3 Neither could the gates of death, nor the tomb’s dark portal, nor the watchers, nor the seal, hold you as a mortal: but today, among your own, you appear, bestowing your deep peace, which evermore passes human knowing. 4 Alleluia! Now we cry to our Lord immortal, who, triumphant, burst the bars of the tomb’s dark portal; Alleluia! With the Son, God the Father praising; Alleluia! Yet a gain to the Spirit raising.
