Resurrection of Christ

They put him to death and shame.
God conquered death and reigns the life,
he who was scorned, defenseless.
All kinds of life bear him homage.

Christ crossed the threshold of Heaven.
Where before the lifeless God was lain,
the tombstone is threw aside,
the burial shroud is rolled –

He consoled his apostles,
instituted confession –
Sacrament of Penance.

God gave people redemption,
God from power of death released -
Christ crumbled death’s might.
