<p>At the Lamb&#8217;s high feast we sing,<br>
Praise to our victorious King,<br>
Who hath washed us in the tide<br>
Flowing from his pierc&egrave;d side;<br>
Praise we Him, Whose love divine<br>
Gives His sacred blood for wine,<br>
Gives His body for the feast,<br>
Christ the Victim, Christ the Priest.</p>
<p>Where the Paschal blood is poured,<br>
Death&#8217;s dark angel sheathes his sword;<br>
Israel&#8217;s hosts triumphant go<br>
Through the wave that drowns the foe.<br>
Praise we Christ, Whose blood was shed,<br>
Paschal Victim, paschal Bread;<br>
With sincerity and love<br>
Eat we Manna from above.</p>
<p>Mighty Victim from the sky,<br>
Hell&#8217;s fierce powers beneath Thee lie;<br>
Thou hast conquered in the fight,<br>
Thou hast brought us life and light;<br>
Now no more can death appall,<br>
Now no more the grave enthrall;<br>
Thou hast opened Paradise,<br>
And in Thee Thy saints shall rise.</p>
<p>Paschal triumph, Easter joy,<br>
Only sin can this destroy;<br>
From sin&#8217;s death do Thou set free<br>
Souls reborn, O Lord, in Thee.<br>
Hymns of glory and of praise,<br>
Father, to Thee we raise;<br>
Risen Lord, all praise to Thee,<br>
Ever with the Spirit be.</p>
