Verse 1
Since Christ our passover is slain, A sacrifice for all; Let all, with thankful hearts, agree To keep the festival:
Verse 2
Not with the leaven, as of old, Of sin and malice fed; But with unfeign'd sincerity, And truth's unleaven'd bread.
Verse 3
Christ being rais'd by Pow'r Divine, And rescu'd from the grave, Shall die no more, death shall on him No more dominion have.
Verse 4
For that he died, 'twas for our sins He once vouchsaf'd to die: But that he lives, he lives to God, For all eternity.
Verse 5
So count yourselves as dead to sin, But graciously restor'd, And made, henceforth, alive to God, Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
