Lyrics: Romans ch.6, v.9-11; I Corinthians ch. 15, v.20-22

Christ rising again from the dead now dieth not.
Death from henceforth hath no power upon him.
For in that he died, he died but once to put away sin,
but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
And so likewise count yourselves dead unto sin
but living unto God, in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Christ is risen again, the first fruits of them that sleep.
For seeing that by man came death,
by man also cometh the resurrection of the dead.
For as in Adam all men do die,
so by Christ shall all men be restored to life.
