Rex Christe, tibi sit honor, alleluia,
Quia tu pertulisti quam mortem, alleluia,
Resurgendo devicisti, alleluia,
Orcum tum destruxisti, alleluia.

Christus der König, dir sei Ehre erwiesen, halleluja,
weil du so sehr überwunden hast den Tod, halleluja,
auferstehend hast du gesiegt, halleluja,
und also die Hölle zerstört, halleluja.
