Processional for the Sunday of the Resurrection ("Easter Sunday") at St. Bartholomew's Church in New York City on April 24, 2011.
The hymn is a composite of two different 18th-century English translations and interpretations of the same 14th-century Latin hymn "Surrexit Christus hodie". The first three stanzas appear in the "Complete Psalmist" by John Arnold, and the last stanza is by Charles Wesley.
The hymn tune is called "Easter Hymn", first appearing in 1708 by an unknown composer.
