We look at the Resurrection of Christ, and we worship the holy Jesus Christ our Lord. Who alone is without sin. We bow down to Your Cross, O Christ, and we praise and glorify Your Resurrection. For you are our God and we know none but You, and after Your name we are called. Glory be to the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

All joy befits you, O Mother of God, for through you, Adam returned to Paradise. And Eve gained grace to replace her sadness. Through you she gained freedom once more, as well as eternal salvation. And we too let us glorify you, as a treasure of the Resurrection. Hail to the sealed treasure, through which we were given life. Hail to her who gave birth to Christ our God who gave us life, through His Resurrection. Blessed are you O Lord, teach me Your statutes.
