Save Your people, O Lord, and bless Your inheritance.*
Grant victory to Your faithful people against enemies,*
and protect Your community by Your cross.

Tropar Sunday, Tone 7:

By Your cross You destroyed death;*

offering great mercy to the world.

Glory Be… Tone 7:

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and forever and ever. Amen.

No longer shall the dominion of death be able to hold humanity,*
for Christ went down shattering and destroying its powers.*

Come forth, O faithful, to the resurrection!”

Instead of “Holy God… “

To Your cross, O Master, we bow in veneration, and we glorify Your holy Resurrection. (3x)

It is good to give praise to the Lord; and to sing in Your name, O Most High.

To announce Your mercy in the morning and Your truth every night.

My soul, extol the venerable cross of the Lord.*
O Mother of God, you are a hidden paradise*
which mysteriously brought forth Christ*
by whom a life-giving tree of the cross has been planted on earth.*
Today this cross is being exalted,*
and we, adoring it, glorify You.

The Light of Your face, O Lord, is raised over us.
