Approved standard text and music for the hymn Christ is Risen

Tuesday, April 10, 2012

 

Last week, His Eminence Archbishop Demetrios, on behalf of all the members of our Holy Eparchial Synod, approved and distributed copies of the standard text and music for the English version of Christos Anesti to all the parishes of our Archdiocese. The National Forum is so pleased we have reached this milestone of now being able to sing this significant and beautiful hymn of our faith in English as one, wherever we travel and whenever we gather from different parishes, just as we have been able to do with the Greek version.


The music and text for the approved English version, the audio (MP3) file, and the Archbishop’s letter can be found on the ‘Christ is Risen’ page on the National Forum website under Resources at http://www.churchmusic.goarch.org/resources/christisrisen.
