𝐄𝐱𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐭 ✠ - 𝐏𝐚𝐬𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 (𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘳𝘵 𝘍𝘰𝘳𝘮)

This hymn is sung with the Paschal Candle during the Easter Vigil. Normally it is sung by a priest or deacon unless either one is unable to, in which case a lay cantor may be assigned to chant it (hence why the “The Lord be with you” is omitted here since it can only be sung by a priest/deacon).
“It (the Exsultet) is the rite of sanctification of light and night, of place and time, of priest and faithful for the celebration of the Resurrection of our Lord. In itself, it is a symbolic representation of the Resurrection of Christ, a sacramental, preparing for and anticipating the reenactment of the Resurrection in the eucharistic Sacrifice.
This Easter-sacramental is a jewel of the liturgy, brilliant in content and composition, in its symbolism and efficacy. The hymn is filled with profound theology, radiant with youthful enthusiasm, flowing in the most solemn rhythms of the psalms, resounding in the most jubilant cadences of Gregorian chant. This sacramental, based on the ritual of the Old Testament and containing as it does venerable relics of apostolic tradition, reflects and transmits to us an echo of the glorified joy of early Christianity.” - catholicculture.org
