Traditional Easter Day Prayer
Christ is Risen: The world below lies desolate
Christ is Risen: The Spirits of evil are fallen
Christ is Risen: The angels of God are rejoicing
Christ is Risen: The tombs of the dead are empty
Christ is Risen indeed from the dead the first of the sleepers
Glory and power are his forever and ever.
(St. Hippolytus AD 190-236)
