Praise we Christ, whose blood was shed, Paschal victim, Paschal bread; With sincerity and love Eat we manna from above. 3 Mighty victim from on high, Hell's fierce pow'rs 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. 4 Easter triumph, Easter joy, This alone can sin destroy; From sin's pow'r, Lord, set us free, Newborn souls in you to be.
