Lyrics
Before the dawn, Mary and the women came and found the stone
Rolled away from the tomb
They heard an angelic voice:
Why do you seek the One who dwells in eternal Light among the dead?
Behold the clothes in the grave
Go quickly, proclaim to the world:
Christ is risen from the dead
Trampling down death by death
And on those in the tombs bestowing life
The Son of God saving the race of men
Christ is risen from the dead
Trampling down death by death
And on those in the tombs bestowing life
The Son of God saving the race of men
You descended into the grave
Overthrowing the powers of hell(death?)
Christ our God, you rise as an
immortal conquerror
You greeted the myrrhbearing women with joy
You bestowed your Apostles with peace
Upon those who have fallen
You give resurrection
Christ is risen from the dead
Trampling down death by death
And on those in the tombs bestowing life
The Son of God saving the race of men
