Composed by Lucien Deiss. Easter, Lent, Ordinary Time 33 Year B, Easter 7 Year B, Easter 4 Year B, Lent 3 Year B. Sacred. Octavo. With guitar chord names. GIA Publications #002559. Published by GIA Publications (GI.G-002559).UPC: 641151025599.
Sung for years as an alternative memorial acclamation at Sunday liturgies, Deiss' well-known refrain is coupled with verses that sing a strong reminder that Christ saves us by his death and resurrection and brings joy even in the midst of sorrow. Works well for the opening procession, the communion procession, or the Song of Farewell during the Rite of Final Commendation. Assemblies know this piece by heart.
