the ends of the earth. Now, with the

Therefore, O John, Thou pray for the

Rejoice, O Ruling Capital City of cities;
for today Thou hast received the
body of Thy Good Shepherd, who
served well the Chief of Shepherds,
Christ the Lord. Thy Chrysostom
brought order and Salvation to
society and all the world by his
sweet words. Therefore, applaud
and sing hymns.
O Mary, decked with Grace by God,
tremendous is Thy Patronage,
magnificent is Thy Glory in all the
earth, O Theotokos. Thou art our
greatest pride and joy. We have
Thee as our Intercessor with Thy Son
Who created Thee. May we all be
Saved, O Lady, through Thy ceaseless
Intercessions.

Let everything that has breath praise
the Lord. Praise the Lord from the
Heavens; praise Him in the Highest.
To Thee praise is due, O God.
Praise Him, all His Angels; praise Him,
all His Powers. To Thee praise is
due, O God.

that is decreed; such Glory will be
for all His Holy Ones.
Everything that has breath and every
creature Glorifies Thee, O Lord, for

alone Loves mankind!

But he said to them: “Do not be
alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth,
Who was crucified. He is risen! He is
not here. See the place where they
laid Him.
“So go, tell His Disciples - and Peter -
that He is going before you into
Galilee; there you will see Him, as He
said to you.”
And they went out quickly and fled
from the Tomb, trembling and
amazed. And they said nothing to
anyone, for they were afraid.

Thou art the Resurrection of all and
