Holy Saturday As The Sun Hid..
After the procession with the Epitaphion,the choir sings this hymn.
First Plagal mode.
Chanted by" Choir of Vatopaidi Monastery", Mount Athos.
ΜΕΓΑ ΣΑΒΒΑΤΟΝ Τόν ήλιον κρύψαντα.
Ιδιόμελον ψαλλόμενον μετά τού Επιταφίου περιφοράν.
Ηχος πλ.α΄.
ΨΑΛΛΕΙ ΧΟΡΟΣ ΒΑΤΟΠΑΙΔΙΝΩΝ ΠΑΤΕΡΩΝ,ΑΓΙΟΝ ΟΡΟΣ.

Text in English:
As the sun hid its very rays at the Savior's death,
and the curtain of the temple was rent in twain,
Joseph of everlasting memory approached Pilate
beseeching him in this manner;
Give me this stranger,who from infancy has been
as a stranger,a sojourner in the world.
Give me this stranger,whon His own race has hated
and delivered unto death as a stranger.
Give me this stranger,who in a strange manner
is a stranger to death.
Give me this stranger,who has received the poor as guests.
Give me this stranger,whom the jews from envy estranged
from the world.
Give me this stranger,that i may hide him in a tomb,
for as a stranger He has no place to lay His head.
Give me this stranger,whose Mother seeing His
dead body cries out:"O my Son and my God,
I am sorely wounded within me and my heart is rent,
seeing Thee as one dead:but in Thy Resurrection
I take courage and magnify Thee".
Thus entreating Pilate with these words,
noble Joseph receives the body of the Savior:
and wrapping it with fear in a linen with myrrh,
he places in a tomb Him Who bestows upon all
eternal life and great mercy.

    ...ἐὰν δὲ ἐν τῷ φωτὶ περιπατῶμεν, ὡς αὐτός ἐστιν ἐν τῷ φωτί, κοινωνίαν ἔχομεν μετ’ ἀλλήλων, καὶ τὸ αἷμα Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ καθαρίζει ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ πάσης ἁμαρτίας.

    Η ΧΑΡΙΣ ΤΟΥ ΚΥΡΙΟΥ ΗΜΩΝ ΙΗΣΟΥ ΧΡΙΣΤΟΥ ΜΕΤΑ ΠΑΝΤΩΝ ΥΜΩΝ. (Ρωμ. 16 : 24)

  • @FRANCECHILD They will be no World PEACE friend till the PRINCE OF PEACE comes back

    2 Tim 3

    But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good,  traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power.
