Entrance Hymn
Come let us bow down to Christ as we worship Him the Son of
God. Save us O Son of God, Who did rise from the dead; we sing to
You: Alleluia.
Apolytikion for Palm Sunday
Before Your Passion, You confirmed the Resurrection of all.
By raising Lazarus from the dead, O Christ our God.
Therefore, like the children of old, we also carry symbols of victory,
And to You, the Victor over death, do we cry out:
Hosanna in the Highest. Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the
Lord.
Kontakion
In heaven upon Your Throne,
While on earth riding the back of a donkey,
O Christ our God,
You accepted the angels' praise.
With the songs of the children who cried out to You:
Blessed is He Who comes for the restoration of Adam.
THE CONFESSION OF FAITH
(Nicene-Constantinopolitan Creed)
I believe in one God, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, and of all
things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the
Father before all ages;
Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten, not created, of one essence
with the Father through Whom all things were made.
Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven and was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary and became man.
He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried;
And He rose on the third day, according to the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father;
And He will come again with glory to judge the living and dead. His kingdom
shall have no end.
And in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Creator of life, Who proceeds from the
Father, Who together with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified,
Who spoke through the prophets.
In one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the age to come.
Amen.
EPISTLE READING
St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians 4:4-9
BRETHREN, rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let all
men know your forbearance. The Lord is at hand. Have no anxiety about
anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let
your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which passes
all understanding, will keep your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just,
whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What
you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, do; and the God of
peace will be with you.
