The day of resurrection!
Earth, tell it out abroad;
The Passover of gladness,
The Passover of God.
From death to life eternal,
From earth unto the sky,
Our Christ hath brought us over,
With hymns of victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our hearts be pure from evil,
That we may see aright
The Lord in rays eternal
Of resurrection light;
And list\u2019ning to His accents,
May hear, so calm and plain,
His own \u201cAll hail!\u201d and, hearing,
May raise the victor strain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now let the heav\u2019ns be joyful!
Let earth the song begin!
Let the round world keep triumph,
And all that is therein!
Let all things seen and unseen
Their notes in gladness blend,
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
Our joy that hath no end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2013John of Damascus<\/p>
Easter Monday
Christ showed His two disciples how His passion was prefigured in various ways; He was sold like Joseph, His scourging by Joseph's blood-stained coat, His crown of thorns by the ram in the briers, His bearing the Cross by Isaac carrying the wood to his sacrifice. pic.twitter.com\/LcxuVI42A9<\/a><\/p>— Memento Mori (@TempusFugit4016) April 5, 2026<\/a><\/blockquote>
