Halleluja! He is Risen!

 
Thanks be to thee, O Lord Jesus Christ, 
for all the benefits which thou hast given us, 
for all the pains and insults which thou hast borne for us. 
O most merciful Redeemer, Friend and Brother, may we know thee more clearly, 
love thee more dearly, and follow thee more nearly, 
now and for evermore.
Richard of Chichester c.1197-1253
