Rex Christe omnes in te laetamur: Halleluja.
Quia quam pertulisti pro nobis mortem: Halleluja.
Resurgendo devicisti, Halleluja.
Serva nos a peccatis.
Ave Domine Fili Dei unigenite, qui natus es de virgine.
Quoniam te decet laus et honor, Rex Christe, qui caput es Ecclesiae.
Fac nos tecum resurgere: Halleluja.

King Christ, all rejoice in thee: alleluia.
For thou hast suffered death for us: alleluia.
In rising, thou hast conquered, alleluia.
Save us from our sins.
Hail, Lord, only-begotten Son of God, who art born of a virgin.
For laud and honor befit thee, King Christ, who art the Church's head.
Make us to rise with thee: alleluia.
