Easter Day

Appears in 108 hymnals First Line: Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us Lyrics: 1 Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us; therefore let us keep the feast; 2 Not with old leaven neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. 3 Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him. 4 For in that he died, he died unto sin once; but in that he liveth he liveth unto God. 5 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves dead indeed unto sin; but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. 6 Christ is risen from the dead; and become the first fruits of them that slept. 7 For since by man came death; by man came also the resurrection of the dead. 8 For as in Adam all die; even so in Christ shall all be made alive. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 5:7 Used With Tune: [Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us]
