First Sunday <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong><br />

Troparion<br />

Year A<br />

I was adorned, O Son <strong>of</strong> God, at Baptism with your rich gifts <strong>of</strong><br />

grace; but I have loved instead the poverty <strong>of</strong> unbelief, and in my<br />

misery I have become a stranger to the virtues. I have wandered<br />

away into a far country <strong>of</strong> sin; but draw me back now, I pray, my<br />

Saviour, and embrace me, protecting me with your holy Cross for life<br />

eternal. Amen.<br />

Year B<br />

I am like the man who fell among thieves, O Son <strong>of</strong> God and Master<br />

<strong>of</strong> all, for I have fallen among my sins and have been cruelly wounded<br />

by them. Yet leave me not without healing, O Lord, who came not<br />

from faithless Samaria but from the pure Virgin. O Jesus, name that<br />

means salvation, have mercy upon me and save me. Amen.<br />

Year C<br />

The grace <strong>of</strong> abstinence, radiant with the light <strong>of</strong> God, shines upon us<br />

this day more brightly than the sun; illuminating our souls it drives<br />

away the clouds <strong>of</strong> sinful passions. Embracing it with joy, let us run<br />

with good courage the course <strong>of</strong> the season <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong> now set before<br />

us; and filled with gladness, let us cry to Christ: Sanctify those who<br />

persevere in repentance and faith, O loving Lord. Amen.<br />

<strong>Second</strong> Sunday <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong><br />

Troparion<br />

Year A<br />

To those who venerate the Cross <strong>of</strong> Christ with all their heart, it is a<br />

restraint on every lust and a law <strong>of</strong> abstinence. Looking ever upon<br />

him who on the Cross was crucified, let us crucify the flesh with its<br />

passions and desires. Let us become one with him who by suffering<br />

his Passion set us free from the passions; and let us ever praise him<br />

for his boundless love and mercy. Amen.<br />

Year B<br />

O worshipful assembly <strong>of</strong> the angels, O wondrous choir <strong>of</strong> saints,<br />

pray fervently to the loving Saviour: may he give us strength to<br />

complete without stumbling the lenten fast, and may he grant us<br />

victory over our spiritual enemies. Amen.<br />

Year C<br />

Like the blind man, I call upon you O Lord from my heart: Son <strong>of</strong><br />

God, give light to the eyes <strong>of</strong> my spirit. Again, like the faithful woman<br />

<strong>of</strong> Canaan I cry to you: Have mercy on me, compassionate Saviour,<br />

for my soul is vexed by the demon <strong>of</strong> self-pleasing. But do you free it<br />

from the darkness <strong>of</strong> the passions, and enable me to live hereafter in<br />

purity <strong>of</strong> heart, that I may ever glorify your loving-kindness. Amen.<br />

Turn to page 9 for the Incensing Psalms<br />

Third Sunday <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong><br />

Troparion<br />

Year A<br />

Most glorious is the grace <strong>of</strong> this holy fast which you have ordained<br />

O Lord for our repentance. Through it Moses received the tables <strong>of</strong><br />

the law, and the prophet Elijah found the chariot <strong>of</strong> fire, Daniel was<br />

exalted, and Elisha raised the dead; the Three Children quenched the<br />

fire, and all men are reconciled to God. Rejoicing in this dispensation<br />

let us cry aloud: Blessed are you, O Christ our God, for this great<br />

mercy, glory to you. Amen.<br />

Year B<br />

We praise your life-giving Cross, O Lord, and your holy sufferings in<br />

the flesh for our sake: the mockery and spitting, the blows and<br />

buffetings, the purple robe and crown <strong>of</strong> thorns, and the spear and<br />

death, by which you have redeemed us and saved us from the curse<br />

<strong>of</strong> the law. Therefore we beseech you: Grant us to complete this our<br />

lenten season <strong>of</strong> repentance. Amen.<br />

Year C<br />

Having strayed from your narrow way, O Lord, through following my<br />

passions, in my wretchedness I have fallen headlong into the pit. The<br />

Levite and the priest passing by turned from me in disdain, and you<br />

alone O Christ have taken pity on me. Tearing up the record <strong>of</strong> my<br />

sins by the weapon <strong>of</strong> the Cross, you have freed me from the<br />

passions and raised me in glory, enthroning me beside the Father.<br />

And so I cry: O Christ whose mercy is beyond my understanding,<br />

glory to you. Amen.<br />

Turn to page 9 for the Incensing Psalms<br />

Fourth Sunday <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong><br />

Troparion<br />

Year A<br />

With your unsleeping eye, look upon me and take pity on me, O<br />

Lord; for I am held fast by the drowsiness <strong>of</strong> sloth as I lie upon the<br />

bed <strong>of</strong> my passions, a slave to the sleep <strong>of</strong> sensual comfort. In your<br />

great mercy O Christ you have bowed your head upon the Cross,<br />

and <strong>of</strong> your own will you have arisen from the sleep <strong>of</strong> death. By this<br />

means you have driven back the night <strong>of</strong> sin, and have become for us<br />

the light <strong>of</strong> righteousness. Amen.<br />

Year B<br />

Stretched and slain upon the Cross, O Christ, you have slain the old<br />

serpent our enemy, and those killed by his sting you have restored to<br />

life. Therefore I entreat you, O Saviour: Give life to my deadened<br />

soul as I turn to you the hope <strong>of</strong> eternal glory. Amen.<br />

Year C<br />

O Christ, the life <strong>of</strong> all, you were hung upon the wood <strong>of</strong> the Cross;<br />

restore to life my soul, slain by sins, that I perish not utterly. I have<br />

rebelled against your commandments, and wasted the wealth <strong>of</strong><br />

graces you have given me. Living as the prodigal I have grown<br />

loathsome, but bring me to repentance and renew me, for you alone<br />

are full <strong>of</strong> mercy. Amen.<br />

Turn to page 9 for the Incensing Psalms<br />

Fifth Sunday <strong>of</strong> <strong>Lent</strong><br />

Troparion<br />

Year A<br />

Grant swift and sure encouragement to your servants, O Jesus, when<br />

our spirits are cast down within us. Leave not our souls in affliction,<br />

and be not far from us in time <strong>of</strong> trouble, but always come quickly to<br />

our help. Draw near to us, for you are everywhere, even as you were<br />

ever with your apostles, and in your compassion unite yourself with<br />

those who love you, that with one accord we may ever praise and<br />

glorify you in the Holy Spirit. Amen.<br />

Year B<br />

When you were crucified in the flesh, O Lord, you crucified our<br />

fallen nature with yourself; and when your side was pierced with a<br />

spear, you pierced the serpent that seduced mankind. Nail my flesh<br />

with godly fear and wound my heart with your love, I pray; so that<br />

gazing on your passion and repenting <strong>of</strong> my sins, I may <strong>of</strong>fer you a<br />

humble sacrifice <strong>of</strong> contrition, O you Lover <strong>of</strong> mankind. Amen.<br />

Year C<br />

We worship you, O loving Lord, beseeching you to pardon our<br />

transgressions; for <strong>of</strong> your own free will you mounted the Cross in<br />

our human flesh, so as to deliver from bondage to Satan those whom<br />

you had fashioned. Therefore in thanksgiving we cry out to you: O<br />

Christ our God, you filled all things with joy when you came to save<br />

the world. Amen.<br />

Turn to page 9 for the Incensing Psalms<br />

Palm Sunday<br />

Troparion<br />

He who sits upon the throne <strong>of</strong> the cherubim, for our sake sits today<br />

upon an ass; and coming to his freely willed passion, he hears the<br />

children cry, Hosanna! With the crowd we all reply, O Son <strong>of</strong> David,<br />

make haste to save those you have created, since for this cause you<br />

have come, O blessed Jesus, that we may know your glory. Amen.<br />

-vvvÓv^vvvÓvvvv5vvvvv4vvvvv5vvvvv]vvvvvv˝v%vvv˝vvvvv4vvvvv2vvvvv4vvvvvvvv}<br />

Psalm 141<br />

O Lord, I call to you; come to me quickly; *<br />

hear my voice when I cry to you.<br />

Let my prayer be set forth in your sight as incense, *<br />

the lifting up <strong>of</strong> my hands as the evening sacrifice.<br />

Set a watch before my mouth, O Lord, and guard the door <strong>of</strong> my lips; *<br />

let not my heart incline to any evil thing.<br />

-vvvvvvvvb4vvvv5vvvvbbv6vvvvvvv6bbbbbbbbbbvvbvv5vvvvvbvvv3vvvvvvv4vvvvvvbv3vvvvbbvvv2vvvvvvvvvvv}<br />

I lift up my hands to you, O Lord.<br />

Let me not be occupied in wickedness with evildoers, *<br />

nor eat <strong>of</strong> their choice foods.<br />

Let the righteous smite me in friendly rebuke;<br />

let not the oil <strong>of</strong> the unrighteous anoint my head; *<br />

for my prayer is continually against their wicked deeds.<br />

Let their rulers be overthrown in stony places, *<br />

that they may know my words are true.<br />

As when a ploughman turns over the earth in furrows, *<br />

let their bones be scattered at the mouth <strong>of</strong> the grave.<br />

-vbvvvvvvbbb4vvvv5vvvvbbv6vvvvvvv6bbbbbbbbbbvvbvv5vvvvvbbbvv3vvvvvvv4vvvvvvv3vvvvbvvvv2vvvvvvvvvvv}<br />

I lift up my hands to you, O Lord.<br />

But my eyes are turned to you, Lord God; *<br />

in you I take refuge; do not strip me <strong>of</strong> my life.<br />

Protect me from the snare which they have laid for me *<br />

and from the traps <strong>of</strong> the evildoers.<br />

Let the wicked fall into their own nets, *<br />

while I myself escape.<br />

Psalm 117<br />

I lift up my hands to you, O Lord.<br />

Praise the Lord, all you nations; *<br />

laud him, all you peoples.<br />

For his loving-kindness toward us is great, *<br />

and the faithfulness <strong>of</strong> the Lord endures for ever. Alleluia.<br />

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,<br />

as it was in the beginning, is now, and shall be for ever. Amen.<br />

Let the lifting up <strong>of</strong> my hands, O Lord, be an evening sacrifice to you.<br />

Lamp Lighting<br />

Officiant Lighten our darkness, we beseech you, O Lord,<br />

and <strong>of</strong> your great mercy defend us from all perils<br />

and dangers <strong>of</strong> this night,<br />

for the love <strong>of</strong> your only Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ.<br />

All Amen.<br />

We sing the praise <strong>of</strong> him who died,<br />

Of him who died upon the Cross;<br />

The sinner’s hope let men deride,<br />

For this we count the world but loss.<br />

Inscribed upon the Cross we see<br />

In shining letters, ‘God is Love’;<br />

He bears our sins upon the Tree;<br />

He brings us mercy from above.<br />

The Cross! it takes our guilt away;<br />

It holds the fainting spirit up;<br />

It cheers with hope the gloomy day,<br />

And sweetens ev’ry bitter cup.<br />

It makes the coward spirit brave,<br />

And nerves the feeble arm for fight;<br />

It takes its terror from the grave,<br />

And gilds the bed <strong>of</strong> death with light;<br />

The balm <strong>of</strong> life, the cure <strong>of</strong> woe,<br />

The measure and the pledge <strong>of</strong> love,<br />

The sinner’s refuge here below,<br />

The angels’ theme in heaven above.<br />

To you, O Christ, our loving King,<br />

All glory, praise and thanks we bring;<br />

All glory as is ever meet,<br />

To Father and to Paraclete. Amen.<br />

V Those who seek the Lord shall praise him.<br />

R May their hearts rejoice for ever.<br />

-v`*~vvvÓv^vvvÓvvvv5vvvvv7vvvvv6vvvvv]vvvvÓv^vvvÓvvvv5vvvvv4vvvvv3vvvvv}<br />

The Lord said to my lord, *<br />

‘Sit at my right hand,<br />

until I make your enemies your footstool.’<br />

The Lord commits to you the sceptre <strong>of</strong> your power *<br />

reign from Zion in the midst <strong>of</strong> your enemies.<br />

Noble are you, from the day <strong>of</strong> your birth upon the holy hill; *<br />

radiant are you, even from the womb,<br />

in the morning dew <strong>of</strong> your youth.<br />

The Lord has sworn and will not turn back: *<br />

‘You are a priest for ever after the order <strong>of</strong> Melchizedek.’<br />

The king shall stand at your right hand, O Lord; *<br />

and shatter kings in the day <strong>of</strong> his wrath.<br />

Glorious in majesty, he shall judge among the nations, *<br />

and shatter heads over a wide land.<br />

He shall slake his thirst from the brook beside the way; *<br />

therefore shall he lift up his head.<br />

Glory to …<br />

O praise the Lord.<br />

I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, *<br />

in the company <strong>of</strong> the upright and among the congregation.<br />

The works <strong>of</strong> the Lord are great, *<br />

and studied by all who take delight in them.<br />

His deeds are majestic and glorious, *<br />

and his righteousness stands for ever.<br />

His marvellous acts have won him a name to be remembered; *<br />

the Lord is gracious and merciful.<br />

He gives food to those that fear him; *<br />

he remembers his covenant for ever.<br />

He showed his people the power <strong>of</strong> his acts *<br />

in giving them the heritage <strong>of</strong> the heathen.<br />

The works <strong>of</strong> his hands are faithful and just, *<br />

and all his commandments are sure;<br />

They stand firm for ever and ever, *<br />

they are done in faithfulness and in truth.<br />

He sent redemption to his people,<br />

he ordained his covenant for ever; *<br />

holy is his name and worthy to be feared.<br />

The fear <strong>of</strong> the Lord is the beginning <strong>of</strong> wisdom, and <strong>of</strong> good<br />

understanding are those that keep his commandments; *<br />

his praise shall endure for ever.<br />
