Thy Cross and Tomb, O Life-giver,

we believers worship and sing praise, for Hades, O Thou Who lives forever, as Almighty God, Thou hast belayed. The Gates of Hades Thou tore to shreds, and as God, the might of Death have razed. So, avidly we earthborn praise in Doxology the One now Raised, Who destroyed the deadly power of our foe. Thou hast Resurrected everyone all those who believe in Thee; Thou hast rescued the world from the serpents fangs, and have snatched us from allure to the hostile one as alone Thou is able to do. Hence, we piously sing the praises of Thy Rising by which Thou Saved us, as the GOD OF ALL THINGS.

Lord, the firm foundation of those who put their trust in Thee, do Thou confirm the Church, which Thou hast purchased with Thy Precious Blood. Virtue, O Christ, has covered the Heavens, for proceeding forth from the Ark of Thy Sanctification, from Thine undefiled Mother, Thou hast appeared in the Temple of Thy Glory as an Infant in arms, and the whole world has been filled with Thy praise.
