"As one who has slept"

This piece is - as usual, I find, with John Tavener - just stunningly beautiful. The text comes, apparently, from the Liturgy for Great and Holy Saturday:
"As one who has slept the Lord has risen
And rising he has saved us. Alleluia."
Sung here by the Westminster Cathedral Choir.
