Bach: Chorale No. 371, "Christ Lag in Todesbanden" Lyrics

Christ Jesus lay in death's strong bands,
for our offenses given;
but now at God's right hand he stands,
and brings us life from heaven.
Wherefore let us joyful be,
and sing to God right thankfully
loud songs of Alleluia! Alleluia!

[Martin Luther, 1483-1546;
trans. by Richard Massie, 1800-1887]
