Book of Needs of the Holy Orthodox Church

by Russkaia pravoslavnaia tserkov

VI. Nunc Dimittis.

VII. O come, let us worship God our King.

O come, let us worship, and fall down before Christ God, our King.

O come, let us worship, and fall down before Christ himself, our King and God.

VIII. It is very meet to bless thee, the God-bearing one, the ever blessed, the entirely spotless, and the Mother of our God. The more honourable than the cherubim, and incomparably more glorious than the seraphim, who didst bear without corruption God the Word, thee, verily the God-bearing one, we magnify.

IX. Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, glory to thee, our God. Three times.

X. Psalm 50.

XI. See Trisagion. [Note i.]

XII. Having seen the resurrection of Christ, we adore the holy Lord Jesus, who alone is without sin. Thy cross, O Christ, we worship, and sing and glorify thy holy resurrection; for thou art our God, we know none other beside thee, we call upon thy name. O come, all ye faithful, let us adore Christ’s holy resurrection; for by the cross great joy is come into all the world. Ever blessing the Lord, we sing his resurrection; for, enduring crucifixion, death by death he overthrew.
