Christ is risen, alleluia!
Be not afraid, sing out for joy!
Christ is risen, alleluia!
Let us not be afraid. Let us sing out for joy! For God has forgiven our past, secured
our future and invites us to be part of God’s presents—Sharing this Good News with
our neighbor. Christ is risen! Alleluia! Amen!
