Exultet

Rejoice, heavenly powers! Sing, choirs of angels!
Exult, all creation around God’s throne! Jesus
Christ, our King, is risen! Sound the trumpet of
salvation!
Rejoice, O earth, in shining splendour, radiant in
the brightness of your King! Christ has conquered!
Glory fills you! Darkness vanishes for ever!
Rejoice, O Mother Church! Exult in glory! The risen
Saviour shines upon you! Let this place resound with
joy, echoing the mighty song of all God’s people!
