Keep the Feast (Pascha Nostrum) by Liturgical Folk - Lyric Video
Composed and performed by Ryan Flanigan
Words based on the Pascha Nostrum (Christ our Passover) from the Book of Common Prayer, adapted by Ryan Flanigan
Alleluia!
Christ has been sacrificed, oh,
break the Passover host,
Jesus died for us; so let us keep the feast.
Not with the leaven of malice and evil,
that old, dry leaven, corrupting the people,
but with the unleavened bread, that heavenly bread
of purity, love, and truth.
Alleluia!
Christ being raised from the dead,
he will not die again;
death no longer has dominion over him.
The death that he died he died to sin
once and for all, but the life that he lives he lives to God.
So regard yourself dead to sin
and alive to God in Christ our Lord.
Alleluia!
Christ has been raised from the dead
just the way that he said;
first to rise among the ones who fell asleep.
For since by a man came death and corruption
like that by a man comes the resurrection.
For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ
shall all be made alive
Alleluia!
Christ has been sacrificed, oh,
break the Passover host,
Jesus died for us; so let us keep the feast,
let us keep the feast,
let us keep the feast,
Alleluia!
