Easter Sequence (Celtic Alleluia)
$5.00
With this adaptation of Victimae paschali laudes to Fintan O’Carroll and Christopher Walker's wonderful Celtic Alleluia, a familiar tune can now be used to allow the congregation to share in the joyful story of Mary Magdalene's discovery of the empty tomb!
Use the words for choir alone (with O'Carrol and Walker's harmonies), or farm it out to be sung be the assembly -- with women getting the "Mary " verses, men getting the questioning verses, and everyone ending the song together.
1) Christians, through ages untold,
Praise to the Paschaltide Victim!
Offer joy, praise and thankful sacrifice!
2) Christ, the Lamb saved us, the sheep;
Christ, the Just, paid reparation;
Reconciling -- every sinner to the Father.
