The lamentations of the previous night are repeated and the church is plunged into darkness to symbolize the despair and defeat experienced before the dawn of Christ's victory ove the Enemy of our salvation.
Precisely at midnight, a single light emerges from the altar representing the victory of Christ over the defeat over the prince of the darkness by Jesus, the Light of the World.
As the Light is passed from the person to person, it pushes back the darkness of the church and defeats completely.
The Resurrection is proclaimed in song and triumphant procession, and after the Liturgy, its light is carried inot our homes so that they too might be filled with its light and warmth and triumph.
