Holy Ascension of Christ

May 2024

CHRIST IS RISEN!

TRULY HE IS RISEN!

Ode 1: Irmos of the Paschal Canon

It is the Day of Resurrection!

Let us be radiant, O people!

Pascha! The Lord's Pascha!

For from death to life, and from earth to heaven,

Christ our God has brought us, as we sing a hymn of victory!

To Ponder...

Thou, O Saviour, didst come forth unbegotten From the Virgin's womb, leaving her virginity unsullied; Just so now Thou has abolished Death in death. Thou has left in the tomb the fine linen of Joseph, But Thou has raised from the tomb the ancestor of Joseph; For Adam came following Thee; Eve came after Thee, Eve serves Mary, But all the earth is prostrate before Thee as it sings the song of victory: The Lord is Risen!
