Friends, the tomb is empty!  The stone has been rolled away!
    Christ is risen!  He is risen, indeed!
    For three days he lay in that cold and lonely cave.
    But God’s love cannot be contained by anything, not even death!
    Thanks be to God, who gives us victory throughout our Risen Lord.
    Death has been swallowed up in victory!    
    Where, O death, is your victory?
    Where, O death, is your sting?
    Christ is risen!
    He is risen, indeed!
    Come, let us worship the Risen Christ!
