Recessional - "Jesus Christ is Risen Today"

This is taken from the Ordinations Mass at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart at the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana, where my friend, Brendan Mcaleer was ordained to the priesthood.
Music was provided by the University of Notre Dame Folk Choir,

Splendid. I recently read on a BBC site that this is the most popular Easter hymn of all. I love the Easter Vigil. Great to see so many priests - I always feel they look especially radiant and holy on this night!

[@Poli1348]

May his majesty, king of kings, save our souls, amen!

[@thomasfox6961]

I love this hymn as well. God bless!

[@cynthiabell6273]

Beautiful rendition of an Easter hymn. What I found interesting was the number of priests with chasibles, no deacons to be seen. If all the priests were from the university, there must be a priest for every 10 students!!!

[@johnflynn1589]

They were Holy Cross priests that were assigned around the country by the Congregation of Holy Cross and many of them (not all) go to South Bend for Ordinations weekend (which is always the weekend succeeding Easter).

Every Easter Mass, I can't get through this without choking up and weeping. Especially the third verse, "Where the angels ever sing." My normally strong tenor is just mush.

I think there were about 100 or so priests, and the claps were actually directed towards the three new priests (with the blue stripe garments) just ahead of the bishop because they were just ordained.

Charles Wesley wrote this..

[@thomashogan4908]

Actually, he didn't. It is "Surrexit Christus Hodie"a Catholic Bohemian hymn from the 14th century.

[@dakg8034]

@@thomashogan4908 The history of this song is a bit complex because the original author is unknown and the current versions we have today derived from three different 14th century manuscripts: (a) Munich Manuscript (b) Prague Manuscript (c) Engelberg Manuscript Each manuscript had variations of the original, while retaining some of the verses of that original. Since that time other songwriters in translation (including Charles Wesley) have penned other variations by either adding or removing some verses of the hymn. For instance, Wesley is said to have written and added the 4th stanza of the current version we have today. So, although Marsha is not 100% correct on Wesley writing this hymn, she is not entirely wrong either given that at least one stanza was written and added by Wesley.

@@christinebutler7630 This is no compromise. There is no Catholic precedent for 'pealing' tower bells for a closing hymn. Pealing bells announcing Mass, for the Consecration, for Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament--yes, but not for a closing hymn, even though it be on Easter Sunday. You were clearly not raised in the Catholic tradition.

I know this is an old post, but let me tell you, Michael, you sound like a stiff pharisee from two thousand years ago. Complaining about a peal of bells during a jubilant hymn, as you cling piously to this small liturgical pedantry as if it was Law. Not much in worship is so minor a bone of contention than an ill placed (in your opinion) joyous tumultuous ringing of bells. Apparently you gave a new commandment, "Thou shall not ring thy bells when it might offend the Michaels of a certain temperament and disposition" Leave room for the Spirit. You sound as brittle as rigor-mortis. However silly those bells may sound they ring more free, Joyful and sacred than your words which resound like a crashing cymbal or a clanging gong.
