Proemion and Sedro
Let us all pray and beg for mercy and compassion.
Merciful Lord, have mercy on us and help us.
Praise, thanksgiving, glory, honor and exaltation, continually and without ceasing at all times, may we be worthy to offer to him; to the high and lofty one, who clothed himself in flesh from the holy virgin in his compassion, and chose apostles to announce his revelation; who gave strength to the holy martyrs, who died for love of him, and brought consolation to the dead, who slept in his hope; to whom belongs glory and honor and worship at this time of third hour and at all times and seasons and hours and moments of the days of our life for ever, Amin.
Accept, Lord, in your mercy and your compassion our service and our prayers, which we present before the glorious majesty of your high godhead, on behalf of your churches and your monasteries, and on behalf of your priests and your deacons and your people; forgive our faults by the prayers of your blessed mother, our Lord Mary, and of the prophets and apostles and martyrs and confessors and virgins and the continent and those who fast and those who mourn and practice asceticism, and of all those who were pleasing to your by their deeds; have mercy and compassion in your grace on the faithful departed who have slept in your hope, that we with them may offer praise and thanksgiving in your kingdom to you and your blessed Father and your Holy Spirit, now and always and forever, Amin.
Qolo
Peace be with you, Mary, ark of mysteries which Moses set up, peace be with you, veil of the Spirit, by which the living waters are represented, peace be with you, fortified city of which David, son of Jesse , spoke; and God came forth from your womb.
Blessed holy virgin mother of God, may your memory be kept with the smoke of incense forever; pray with us to your only Son, that his peace may reign in the creation, and the Church and her children may be protected.
Glory to the Father…
The martyrs took the armor of the cross and descended for conflict with the evil one; some were pierced by the sword and some were burned by the fire, and the evil one saw and was enraged, because they were not overcome in the contest; by their prayer have pity on us, Lord.
From ages to ages…
At the table which you prepared from of old for the just and righteous let the departed recline, Lord, who partook of your body and blood; and since they acknowledged you while they lived, acknowledge them before your Father, those who died in you and slept in your hope.
