Sunday of Orthodoxy
Dismissal Hymn, Second Tone

We worship Thine immaculate icon, O Good One, asking the forgiveness of our failings, O Christ our God; for of Thine own will Thou wast well -pleased to ascend the Cross in the flesh, that Thou mightest deliver from slavery to the enemy, those whom Thou hadst fashioned, Wherefore, we cry to Thee thankfully: Thou didst fill all things with joy, O our Saviour, when Thou camest to save the world.
