The Morning Doxologies

Behold how beneficent, and how pleasant, it is for brethren, to dwell together in unity."

It is like the fragrant oil, on the head of Christ, running down the beard, down to the feet

+ That anoints every day, the elders, the children and young men, and the deacons

Those whom the Holy Spirit, has attuned together, as a stringed instrument, always blessing God

+ By psalms and hymns, and spiritual songs, by day and by night, with an incessant heart

(For the Virgin)

You are the Mother of the Light, the honored Mother of God, you have carried, the Uncircumscript Logos

For of His own will, and the pleasure of His Father, and the Holy Spirit, He came and saved us

+ And we too, hope to win mercy, through your intercessions, with the Lover of Mankind

The select incense, of your virginity, ascended to the throne, of the Father

+ Better than the incense, of the Cherubim, and the Seraphim, O Virgin Mary

(For the Angels)

Thousands of thousands, and myriads of myriads, of archangels, and holy angels

Our fathers the Apostles, preached unto the nations, the Gospel, of Jesus Christ
