Your death, Lord Jesus, became the beginning of new life for us. and through baptism into you, we receive the token of life to come, which is your resurrection from among the dead. And so, in feasting and joy, we glorify your name, O Lord, because you abolished error and took away the sin of the world. And the one on whose head was placed the decree of Adam's condemnation, you returned to life everlasting.
