Exsultet


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 splendor,
radiant in the brightness of your King!
Christ has conquered! Glory fills you!
Darkness vanishes forever!

Rejoice, O Mother Church! Exult in glory!
The risen Savior shines upon you!
Let this place resound with joy,
echoing the mighty song of all God's people!

--from the Easter Vigil liturgy
