LYRICS Latin text
Ad cenam Agni providi,
stolis salútis condidi,
post transitum maris Rubri
Christo canamus principi.
Cuius corpus sanctissimum
in ara crucis torridum,
sed et cruorem roseum
gustando, Deo vivimus.
Protecti paschæ vespero
a devastante angelo,
de Pharaonis aspero
sumus erepti imperio.
Iam pascha nostrum Christus est,
agnus occisus innocens;
sinceritatis azyma
qui carnem suam obtulit.
O veram digna hostia,
per quam franguntur tartara,
captíva plebs redimitur,
redduntur vitæ præmia!
Consurgit Christus tumulo,
victor redit de barathro,
tyrranum trudens vinculo
et paradisum reserans.
Esto perenne mentibus
paschale, Iesu, gaudium
et nos renatos gratiæ
tuis triumphis aggrega
Iesu, tibi sit gloria,
qui morte victa prænites,
cum Patre et almo Spíritu,
in sempiterna sæcula. Amen.
