Sixth Resurrection Eothinon Doxasticon

Since Thou art the True Peace of God to

mankind, O Christ, Thou granted Thy Peace to Thy Disciples after Thy Resurrection when Thou saw them frightened by what they thought to be a spirit. But Thou removed the anxiety of their souls when Thou showed them Thy Hands and Feet; and yet they still doubted. But when Thou partook of food with them, reminding them of Thy preaching, Thou opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. And Thou made the Eternal Covenant with them, Blessed them and then Ascended into Heaven. Wherefore, with them, we worship Thee. O Lord, Glory be to Thee!
