Chanters:
And to thy spirit.
Priest:
The reading is from the Holy Gospel according to N.
Chanters:
Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee.
Deacon:
Let us attend.
The priest readeth the appropriate Gospel (see end of document for a
list of readings).
Chanters:
Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee.
And again the refrains are chanted as before, thrice:
Clergy:
O Sweetest Jesus, save us!
Chanters:
O Sweetest Jesus, save us!
Clergy:
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
Chanters:
Both now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
Or: O most holy Theotokos, save us! Glory. Both now.
Or: Holy Hierarch Father Nicholas, pray to God for us! Glory. Both now.
Then:
It is truly meet to bless thee, the Theotokos, ever-blessed and most
blameless, and Mother of our God. More honourable than the
Cherubim, and beyond compare more glorious than the Seraphim,
thee who without corruption gavest birth to God the Word, the very
Theotokos, thee do we magnify.
