Tropar Sunday, Tone 3:

Let the heavens be glad, let the earth rejoice,*
for the Lord has done a mighty deed with His arm.*
He trampled death by death; He became the first born of the dead;*
He saved us from the abyss of Hades*
and granted great mercy to the world.

Tropar of the Forefathers, Tone 2:

O Christ, You have justified the forefathers by faith,*
thus forming through them the Church of the gentiles.*
These saints are glorified because the Virgin who bore You descends from them.*
O Christ God, through their prayers have mercy on us.

Glory Be  . . . Tone 6

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,*

Kondak of the Forefathers, Tone 6:

Armed with invisible power,*
you did not adore the idols made by human hands, O thrice-holy youths;*
strengthened by a power beyond words,*
you stood in the midst of a devouring fire and called upon God, saying,*
“Hasten, O merciful One, and speed to our help,*
for You are good and have power to do whatever you desire.”

Now and for ever… Tone 3:

now and forever and ever. Amen.

Kondak Sunday, Tone 3:

You arose from the tomb, O compassionate Lord,*
and led us out from the gates of death.*
Today Adam exults and Eve rejoices,*
and the prophets together with the patriarchs unceasingly acclaim*
the divine might of Your power.

Prokimen, Tone 4:

Blessed are you, and praiseworthy, O Lord, the God of our fathers,*
and glorious forever is your name.

verse:  For you are just in all you have done.

Blessed are you, and praiseworthy, O Lord, the God of our fathers,*
and glorious forever is your name.

Alleluia Verses:

Moses and Aaron are among His priests and Samuel among those who call upon His name.

 They called upon the Lord, and he answered them.

Instead of ‘Indeed, it is fitting’:

O my soul, extol the glorious conception*
of the Mother of God.*
You are an inexhaustible source of life,*
O Mother of God.*
You are a radiant lamp of grace, a temple of the Holy Spirit,*
an all-pure tent more spacious*
than the heavens and the earth.*
Therefore, we the faithful,*
praise you.

Communion Hymn (Verses)

Praise the Lord from the heavens;* praise Him in the highest.

Exult, you just, in the Lord;* praise from the upright is fitting. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia.
