Hymnus
Chorus novæ Ierúsalem hymni novam dulcédinem promat, colens cum sóbriis paschále festum gáudiis,
Quo Christus invíctus leo, dracóne surgens óbruto, dum voce viva pérsonat, a morte functos éxcitat.
Quam devorárat ímprobus, prædam refúndit tártarus; captivitáte líbera Iesum sequúntur ágmina.
Triúmphat ille spléndide et dignus amplitúdine, soli políque pátriam unam facit rem públicam.
Ipsum canéndo súpplices Regem precémur mílites, ut in suo claríssimo nos órdinet palátio.
Esto perénne méntibus paschále, Iesu, gáudium et nos renátos grátiæ tuis triúmphis ággrega.
Lord Jesus, grant unto our souls Eternal paschal joy, we pray, And grant a share in victory To those reborn by grace today.
Iesu, tibi sit glória, qui morte victa prǽnites, cum Patre et almo Spíritu, in sempitérna sǽcula. Amen.
All glory, Jesus, be to you, The conqueror whom we adore, The Father and the Spirit blest Who reign with you for evermore.

Lectio brevis (Rom 8, 10-11)
Si Christus in vobis est, corpus quidem mórtuum est propter peccátum, spíritus vero vita propter iustítiam. Quod si Spíritus eius, qui suscitávit Iesum a mórtuis, hábitat in vobis, qui suscitávit Christum a mórtuis, vivificábit et mortália córpora vestra per inhabitántem Spíritum suum in vobis.
And if Christ be in you, the body indeed is dead, because of sin; but the spirit liveth, because of justification. And if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead, dwell in you; he that raised up Jesus Christ from the dead, shall quicken also your mortal bodies, because of his Spirit that dwelleth in you.
