97. Sticheron of the Resurrection

The Day of Resurrection!
Let gladness light each face;
And in our solemn concourse give
To each a kind embrace;
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
And death by death is slain;
The silent dwellers in the tomb
Are called to life again.

To those who love or hate us,
"Our brethren," let us say;
Be all with joy forgiven,
This Resurrection Day.
For Christ the Lord hath risen,
And death by death is slain,
The silent dwellers in the tomb
Are called to life again.
