The Holy Theophany (Epiphany) of our Lord and God and Saviour Jesus Christ
Dismissal Hymn, First Tone

When thou wast baptized in the Jordan, O Lord, the worship of the Trinity was made manifest; for the voice of the Father bare witness to Thee, calling Thee His beloved Son. And the Spirit in the for of a dove confirmed the certainty of the word. O Christ our God, Who hast appeared and hast enlightened the world, glory be to Thee.
